It is a bit sad that the dmca repo gets targeted, because it's an optional extra that github is doing to show publicly when DMCA notices are received.



I'm curious why that repo even has PR's enabled?


I don't think you can disable them.


Ironically, this is a feature people have been asking GitHub to implement for years now.


But, in this topic, PRs are not needed for the current shenanigans - all it uses is object sharing between forks


I assume thats because internally within github, all forks are implemented as a single repo with some kind of namespacing on branches.
