I donno, perhaps we're just reading the page differently (And of course, all the context that's in Chinese is lost on us), but I don't really see how GreatFire is using Github in a way that's not intended, as Github is used for lots of non-code repos and AFAIK that's never even been considered an issue. I think saying that they're trying to 'weaponize' github is arguable, but regardless the idea of putting the information they have on somewhere like Github, where making copies and distributing it is extremely easy makes a lot of sense from their standpoint. In addition, Github is nice and popular, meaning lots of people will see. Wikileaks did/does similar things, like posting torrents to large encrypted masses of data on places like Facebook, where lots of people will see it. When you consider they're trying to fight censorship, their actions make sense.
