Is it illegal to run an auto reload Python script on Github? #22180
-
|
I’m learning Python and came across a simple browser auto reload script. Is it safe to use it on Github profile page? I browsed through the rules and didn’t find anything talking about it. p.s: It’s not a bot, I’m not creating any new accounts. It’s just a simple python code that refreshes my Github browser tab. ~ A github user who doesn’t want to be banned. |
