+The two repositories in question are proprietary Byteboard Assessments used to evaluated technical skills on behalf of hiring companies. The individuals who posted these materials to GitHub were both candidates who we invited to the interview and posted the materials online in contradiction of their agreement to "not share your code, text and other data or information that you create while using the Service with any other party." Beyond the material the candidates created, the repositories include substantial amounts of the existing codebase that candidates are provided to work in that is also proprietary content. While we cannot link directly to the assessments because they are not publicly available, you can see our homepage (https://byteboard.dev/) and note that both repositories explicitly identify the material as a Byteboard interview.
