With the end of Linspire [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12] came a lawsuit and infighting [1, 2]. Kevin Carmony is now being sued as well. Isn't it ironic? He signed a deal with Microsoft, perhaps for fears of lawsuits.
Anyway, the detailed are here in his blog. Watch and learn what happens to Microsoft sellouts. ⬆

I'm thinking you don't understand what ironic means.
How is this ironic at all?

It's synonymous with coincidental in this case. It's a less common use of the word.
One common concern when things go "live" is that any random bot out there can execute queries, pumping up RAM and CPU usage, as happened when we used MediaWiki and WordPress
In short, it's not too clear what Microsoft has just done except dumping GitHub - i.e. mostly a Web site that loses a ton of money (it always lost money) - into some mysterious new bucket
