Ask HN: Will you join me and change your GitHub avatar to Edward Snowden?

13 pointslogn3 comments

Let's show our support for Edward Snowden. Can you please join me in a show of solidarity by changing your GitHub profile's avatar to be the image of Edward? Let's remind the government who makes their software (note that their secret intelligence apps leveraged many FOSS projects).

I feel like there needs to be some kind of wording on the bottom of the image.

We all have jobs and careers. I figured we can be tactful and subtle, but still stand up for our own in an obvious way to those in the government.

How about I put it on more than just my Github profile?
