is lack of privacy your issue with the "your stars" page? consider a bookmarks manager.

You can make the profile private and it’ll hide the stars.

Can't hide the stars from Github itself though. Keeping as much preference data away from social networks as possible is not an unreasonable stance, IMHO.

[Hamuko]

You also can't hide the fact that you're browsed or even cloned the repository from GitHub, since it's on their servers.

Perfect is the enemy of good. Much harder for some website to correlate random dowmloads to a specific identity.

[stjohnswarts]

not a bad idea. in that case you can just bookmark them, no?
