Language on GitHub Oauth page could scare people

I was suggesting on the OpenEuphoria forum that folk could have a look at the task descriptions. One user got very turned off as below:


For a lot of people, see “The application will be able to read your private email addresses” is profoundly terrifying.

This is how GitHub oauth works. If you sign up with GitHub, GitHub gives us your email address. I think they’ve entirely misunderstood what’s going on here. It’s not like we can then magically read things on their computer…

Regardless, that’s language on GitHub’s side, not ours, so I’m going to mark this as wontfix.
