GitHub Action, the free-to-use CI/CD system for all the open-source projects, is about to get some changes. GitHub Actions will not trigger automatically on pull requests of first-time contributors. Why? Because of cryptocurrency (Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc.) miners were hijacking and abusing GitHub servers to mine crypto. Someone with repository write permissions will have to approve the changes first! Yeah... Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are cancer of modern IT!
