From April 12 to 13, 2025, a misconfiguration led to a temporary inaccessibility of GitHub for all non-logged-in users originating from Chinese IP addresses, while logged-in users remained unaffected. The disruption commenced at 04:01 Beijing time on April 13 and was resolved by 22:55. GitHub has officially clarified that this incident was an unintended outcome of configuration adjustments and was not aimed at any specific country or region, confirming that access has since been fully restored.
