GitHub is a web-based Git repository hosting service and is primarily used to host the source code of software and facilitate project management. As of 2015, GitHub reports having over 10 million users and over 24.2 million repositories. It offers free accounts, a pastebin service called Gist, and free website hosting under its github.io domain. The GitHub terms of service prohibits illegal use and it reserves the right to remove content at its discretion.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://help.github.com/articles/github-terms-of-service/ ) (Specifically terms A8 and G7)〕 In addition, users can fork (copy and individually develop) other projects, which GitHub does not automatically take down when served DMCA takedown notices.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://help.github.com/articles/dmca-takedown-policy/#b-what-about-forks-or-whats-a-fork )〕 GitHub uses HTTPS for its connections making data much more secure against interception from third parties. Because of its popularity, hosting policy, and its security, GitHub has been the target of censorship from various governments using methods ranging from local Internet service provider blocks, intermediary blocking using methods such as DNS hijacking and man-in-the-middle attacks, and denial-of-service attacks on GitHub's servers from countries including China, India, and Russia.

In addition, western businesses have said that these restrictions hurt their business by reducing access to information such as by search engines and using VPNs. GreatFire, a Chinese anti-censorship organization, has attempted to circumvent the Great Firewall of China using mirror websites. However, the links to these pages were posted using GitHub which brings the risk of the site being blocked along with the mirrors. In a previous incident, HSBC bank's Chinese operation was taken offline when the Akamai network was targeted for hosting GreatFire.org websites.
