Of course, but I didn't think that hosting the code on Github gives
Microsoft more rights over it than if it were hosted somewhere else. Is
there anything in the Github terms of service that grants Microsoft
more rights over my code than the terms of the applicable license? And
if you're assuming that Microsoft won't respect license terms, then
once again, it won't matter where the code is hosted.
