Why did you switch from github.com/magnolia1234 (now deleted) to github.com/magnolia1234-new ?
Clean start. But why bother if you're not using it anyway?
You don't want to reveal the reasons for your github suspension/deletion? (I could understand if they didn't tell you. Such notices are frustratingly often deliberately uninformative.)

The first time this project was discussed on HN I thought that it's not trustworthy and I believed the project description to be dishonest.

That somewhat rhymes with stuff one would need to do to get suspended on github - hence my question.

Then again the legal situation of paywall bypasses is pretty grey, so it's genuinely interesting to know whether github has potentially some kind of policy against it.

I know you're officially not involved as you said that the first time you posted the project. An unofficial answer would be equally interesting!
