Twitter served a subpoena on GitHub on March 24 after discovering that a user named “FreeSpeechEnthusiast” had shared unlicenced pieces of its source code. The GitHub profile linked to the DMCA takedown lists a single (non-public) code contribution from early January 2023, suggesting that the source code may have been available for a while before being removed. Revealing it to the public could expose its software’s flaws to potential attackers and give rivals an advantage by allowing them to see confidential internal processes.įollowing Twitter’s request, the software collaboration platform immediately removed the code. Why does it matter? One of a company’s most closely guarded trade secrets is frequently proprietary source code. The request, which GitHub posted, mentioned that the leaked information included “proprietary source code for Twitter’s platform and internal tools.” Twitter has filed a Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) request after pieces of the computer code used to run the microblogging platform were recently posted online via software collaboration platform, GitHub.

Low-income nations are also likely to bear a higher share of the global disease burden when medical professionals emigrate. Why is this a big deal? When healthcare professionals leave, hospitals in developing countries face a shortage of skilled workers, impacting the standard of care patients receive and maternal, newborn, and child health outcomes.

It’s no news that health professionals migrating from Africa to developed countries is becoming more common.Ī 2023 World Health Organization (WHO) report (PDF) shows that 55 nations, including 37 in Africa, currently fall below the global median for the number of physicians, nurses, and midwives per capita.įor context, countries with low health workforce densities have less than 49 healthcare workers for every 10,000 people, according to the report. You probably know or have heard of at least one healthcare worker who has emigrated since 2020.
