Coordinated GitHub API enumeration and access token abuse
Datadog Security Research observed overlapping campaigns abusing the GitHub API to enumerate organizations, repositories, and user accounts using ghost accounts, compromised OAuth tokens, and personal access tokens.

Privacy Badger is a free browser extension by EFF that blocks trackers—like Meta’s pixel—from loading on websites you visit. It also replaces embedded Facebook posts, Like buttons, and Share buttons with click-to-activate placeholders, blocking another way that Meta tracks you.
