Yeah putting full unobfuscated links to malware or copyrighted content into your repository seems like an obvious way to get it blocked. If they masked the URLs a bit it might've been fine.
if they were obfuscated the urls the app itself would need to process it to un-obfuscate, then the performance would take a hit, but I get your point. It's just the wrong service to host this.
PS: could not check the link, as my country blocked twitter.
* I often put malware samples in my repositories on github (I prepare malware analysis trainings, and I develop my trainings on github). Never got banned.
* There are a ton of leaked malware sources (and/or binaries) stored on github. They are not banned
* Github is full of blatantly obvious malware (at best "pentesting tools", at worst "educational projects"). Sadly, not banned too.
