even if off-topic, I cannot resist: may I ask you _WHY_ they decided to
block GitHub? Do you know?

I'm really curious as... even tough there could be plenty of websites
that could be "banned"/"censored" in a school-district scenario for
several reasons, I really see _NO_ reason in blocking GitHub. Do you have
details?

Thanks,
DV
