> We have partnered with Tencent WeChat to scan for their tokens and help secure our mutual users on all public repositories and private repositories with GitHub Advanced Security.
This is GitHub scanning private repos and telling WeChat about them.
WeChat can already scan public repos.
They are not already screwed if they’re publishing something to a private repo, it might be the wrong way to do it, but it doesn’t mean they’re already screwed.
If you don’t trust GitHub’s private repo security then why are you using it in the first place?
