Two important questions I don't see answered in the readme: 1. What is the criteria for a github copycat? 2. What is the process for having a website removed? I ask #1 because many businesses use their own git-hosting solutions to host their code but also use github as a mirror. It would be very easy for a competitor to get the website of a rival business listed if the criteria is not strict and specific enough.
I recommend never blocking the entire domain unless the website is a repeat offender (to avoid mistakenly harming innocent businesses and the liability that it may cause). I ask #2 because many of these domains will likely be registered by honest people once the scammers are finished with them. There needs to be a way for the new owners to get their new domains delisted. |

For #1 it seems to mostly be a list of SEO gaming sites that I've personally found to be supremely irritating and deserve to be in the list. They basically just mirror stack overflow and GitHub issues and provide obscured links back to the original source to make sure people stay on their site. You can peruse the list in the code yourself. It's just a text file
