Essay Introduction With Quotes

When a man loves cats, I am his friend and comrade, without further introduction.

Books let us into their souls and lay open to us the secrets of our own." [The Sick Chamber (The New Monthly Magazine , August 1830)]

Man is always inclined to regard the small circle in which he lives as the center of the world and to make his particular, private life the standard of the universe and to make his particular, private life the standard of the universe. But he must give up this vain pretense, this petty provincial way of thinking and judging.

It is the task of a lifetime. You can never know enough, never work enough, never use the infinitives and participles oddly enough, never impede the movement harshly enough, never leave the mind quickly enough.

Literature suffers because writers give their books to colleagues who will then write glowing reviews or saccharine introductions.

It is necessary, first of all, to find a correct logical starting point, one which can lead us to a natural and sound interpretation of the empirical facts.

...it would be a very naive sort of dogmatism to assume that there exists an absolute reality of things which is the same for all living beings. Reality is not a unique and homogeneous thing; it is immensely diversified, having as many different schemes and patterns as there are different organisms. Every organism is, so to speak, a monadic being. It has a world of its own because it has an experience of its own. The phenomena that we find in the life of a certain biological species are not transferable to any other species. The experiences - and therefore the realities - of two different organisms are incommensurable with one another. In the world of a fly, says Uexkull, we find only "fly things"; in the world of a sea urchin we find only "sea urchin things.

There is no remedy against this reversal of the natural order. Man cannot escape from his own achievement. He cannot but adopt the conditions of his own life. No longer in a merely physical universe, man lives in a symbolic universe. Language, myth, art, and religion are parts of this universe. They are the varied threads which weave the symbolic net, the tangled web of human experience. All human progress in thought and experience refines and strengthens this net. No longer can man confront reality immediately; he cannot see it, as it were, face to face. Physical reality seems to recede in proportion as man's symbolic activity advances. Instead of dealing with the things themselves man is in a sense constantly conversing with himself. He has so enveloped himself in linguistic forms, in artistic images, in mythical symbols or religious rites that he cannot see or know anything except by the interposition of this artificial medium. His situation is the same in the theoretical as in the practical sphere. Even here man does not live in a world of hard facts, or according to his immediate needs and desires. He lives rather in the midst of imaginary emotions, in hopes and fears, in illusions and disillusions, in his fantasies and dreams. 'What disturbs and alarms man,' said Epictetus, 'are not the things, but his opinions and fantasies about the things.

I believe that any Christian who is qualified to write a good popular book on any science may do much more by that than by any direct apologetic work…. We can make people often attend to the Christian point of view for half an hour or so; but the moment they have gone away from our lecture or laid down our article, they are plunged back into a world where the opposite position is taken for granted…. What we want is not more little books about Christianity, but more little books by Christians on other subjects—with their Christianity latent. You can see this most easily if you look at it the other way around. Our faith is not very likely to be shaken by any book on Hinduism. But if whenever we read an elementary book on Geology, Botany, Politics, or Astronomy, we found that its implications were Hindu, that would shake us. It is not the books written in direct defense of Materialism that make the modern man a materialist; it is the materialistic assumptions in all the other books. In the same way, it is not books on Christianity that will really trouble him. But he would be troubled if, whenever he wanted a cheap popular introduction to some science, the best work on the market was always by a Christian.

If fairy-story as a kind is worth reading at all it is worthy to be written for and read by adults. They will, of course, put more in and get more out than children can. Then, as a branch of a genuine art, children may hope to get fairy-stories fit for them to read and yet within their measure; as they may hope to get suitable introductions to poetry, history, and the sciences. Though it may be better for them to read some things, especially fairy-stories, that are beyond their measure rather than short of it. Their books like their clothes should allow for growth, and their books at any rate should encourage it.

I have thrown the petty respectable life with all is comforts behind me after the effort to broaden and beautify it has destituted me and drained my stamina. All right--let me throw it behind without guile, without hoping either for a return to it or for a constant absence. After all, it did not request my efforts. The normal live body hopes for the respect and love of others, and enough of the world to bestow largesse. He hopes and he abandons hope by turn. In the first there is fire to live, but in the second there is greater peace.

They must go out of the theatre with the strength they live by strengthened from looking upon some passion that could, whatever its chosen way of life, strike down an enemy, fill a long stocking with money or move a girl's heart.

Such is the strange situation in which modern philosophy finds itself. No former age was ever in such a favourable position with regard to the sources of our knowledge of human nature. Psychology, ethnology, anthropology, and history have amassed an astoundingly rich and constantly increasing body of facts. Our technical instruments for observation and experimentation have been immensely improved, and our analyses have become sharper and more penetrating. We appear, nonetheless, not yet to have found a method for the mastery and organization of this material. When compared with our own abundance the past may seem very poor. But our wealth of facts is not necessarily a wealth of thoughts. Unless we succeed in finding a clue of Ariadne to lead us out of this labyrinth, we can have no real insight into the general character of human culture; we shall remain lost in a mass of disconnected and disintegrated data which seem to lack all conceptual unity.

The governments of the world, knowing each other's interests, do not invade each other.

Reading Virginia Woolf will change your life, may even save it. If you want to make sense of modern life, the works of Virginia Woolf remain essential reading. More than fifty years since her death, accounts of her life still set the pace for modern modes of living. Plunge (and this Introduction is intended to help you take the plunge) into Woolf ’s works – at any point – whether in her novels, her short stories, her essays, her polemical pamphlets, or her published letters, diaries, memoirs and journals – and you will be transported by her elegant, startling, buoyant sentences to a world where everything in modern life (cinema, sexuality, shopping, education, feminism, politics, war and so on) is explored and questioned and refashioned.

As I discuss in Introduction to Animal Rights: Your Child or the Dog?, we may, in the lifeboat or burning-house situation, decide to favor the human over the nonhuman not because death is a lesser harm to the nonhuman, but because we do not know what death means to the nonhuman and we have a better idea what it means to the human. We might, therefore, rely on this—a matter of epistemological limitation on our part and not any empirical claim that death is a lesser harm to humans—as the tie-breaker. We might also flip a coin. We might also decide to choose the nonhuman for some other reason, such as that the human in question is very old and the nonhuman in question is very young. In no case, however, would I think it appropriate to invoke any notion that humans are “higher” animals.

Then I made a terrible mistake: I graduated and went to get my master’s in English literature. In graduate school, the focus shifted: We discussed books before reading them. Or instead of reading them. It took me a disturbingly long time to realize why I was so bothered, so unhappy and unsatisfied. But eventually, it dawned on me. The structure of these classes, the nature of the essays and introductions I was being forced to read, they made one thing abundantly clear: What other people think and feel about a book is more important than what you think and feel. Personally, I don’t think this is true.

I start reading every Elizabeth Wurtzel essay with optimism, like maybe finally she put her talent to writing about something than herself, and by the end of paragraph three that optimism has fled. So maybe you know Wurtzel has written an essay for New York Magazine? Probably you know, because for whatever reason, Wurtzel provokes a deep need in people to talk about how much they hate Wurtzel. So the comments are hundreds deep, Twitter is ablaze, and here I am, writing this blog post. And actually, she reminds me of Mary MacLane. She was a 19-year-old girl who wrote a memoir called I Await the Devil’s Coming in 1901 and it was an instant success. I wrote the introduction to the upcoming reissue, and there I talk about what a deeply interesting book it was. Not only “for its time,” but also it’s just kind of visceral and nasty and snarling, yet elegantly written. I kept thinking about MacLane, after the introduction got handed in and things went off to press. But this time, it wasn’t her writing that interested me, it was the way she never wrote anything very interesting ever again. She got stunted, somehow, winning all of that acclaim for being a young, sour thing. And I wondered if it was the fame that stunted her, because she spent the rest of her career spitting out copies of the memoir that made her famous. And it worked, until it didn’t.

Karl Marx’s early (1844) essay On the Jewish Question is a fascinating example of an intellectual form of Jewish self-hatred. He argues that Judaism is neither religion nor people-hood but the desire for gain; totally ignoring the vast Jewish proletariat of Central and Eastern Europe, he equates Jews, and the Christians whose religion derives from them, with the ‘enemy’ – namely, bourgeois capitalism. Clearly, he is fleeing his own Jewish identity (he was baptized at the age of 6, but was descended from rabbis on both sides of the family), ‘assimilating’ to the cultural milieu of the anti-Semitic Feuerbach, whose perverse definition of Judaism he has adopted, and finding refuge from Jewish particularism in socialist universalism.

But the reduction of "that which is" to the order of things is not limited to slavery. Slavery is abolished, but we ourselves are aware of the aspects of social life in which man is ):~legated to the level of things, and we should know that this relegation did not await slavery. From the start, the introduction of labor into the world replaced intimacy, the depth of desire and its free outbreaks, with rational progression, where what matters is no longer the truth of the present moment, but, rather, the subsequent results of operations. The first labor established the world ofthings, to which the profane world of the Ancients generally corresponds. Once the world of things was posited, man himself became one of the things of this world, at least for the time in which he labored. It is this degradation that man has always tried to escape. In his strange myths, in his cruel rites, man is in search of a lost intimacy from the first.

The 1950s and 1960s: philosophy, psychology, myth There was considerable critical interest in Woolf ’s life and work in this period, fuelled by the publication of selected extracts from her diaries, in A Writer’s Diary (1953), and in part by J. K. Johnstone’s The Bloomsbury Group (1954). The main critical impetus was to establish a sense of a unifying aesthetic mode in Woolf ’s writing, and in her works as a whole, whether through philosophy, psychoanalysis, formal aesthetics, or mythopoeisis. James Hafley identified a cosmic philosophy in his detailed analysis of her fiction, The Glass Roof: Virginia Woolf as Novelist (1954), and offered a complex account of her symbolism. Woolf featured in the influential The English Novel: A Short Critical History (1954) by Walter Allen who, with antique chauvinism, describes the Woolfian ‘moment’ in terms of ‘short, sharp female gasps of ecstasy, an impression intensified by Mrs Woolf ’s use of the semi-colon where the comma is ordinarily enough’. Psychological and Freudian interpretations were also emerging at this time, such as Joseph Blotner’s 1956 study of mythic patterns in To the Lighthouse, an essay that draws on Freud, Jung and the myth of Persephone.4 And there were studies of Bergsonian writing that made much of Woolf, such as Shiv Kumar’s Bergson and the Stream of Consciousness Novel (1962). The most important work of this period was by the French critic Jean Guiguet. His Virginia Woolf and Her Works (1962); translated by Jean Stewart, 1965) was the first full-length study ofWoolf ’s oeuvre, and it stood for a long time as the standard work of critical reference in Woolf studies. Guiguet draws on the existentialism of Jean-Paul Sartre to put forward a philosophical reading of Woolf; and he also introduces a psychobiographical dimension in the non-self.’ This existentialist approach did not foreground Woolf ’s feminism, either. his heavy use of extracts from A Writer’s Diary. He lays great emphasis on subjectivism in Woolf ’s writing, and draws attention to her interest in the subjective experience of ‘the moment.’ Despite his philosophical apparatus, Guiguet refuses to categorise Woolf in terms of any one school, and insists that Woolf has indeed ‘no pretensions to abstract thought: her domain is life, not ideology’. Her avoidance of conventional character makes Woolf for him a ‘purely psychological’ writer.5 Guiguet set a trend against materialist and historicist readings ofWoolf by his insistence on the primacy of the subjective and the psychological: ‘To exist, for Virginia Woolf, meant experiencing that dizziness on the ridge between two abysses of the unknown, the self and

Even after all this time the sun never says to the earth, 'You owe me.

digress just for a bit of fun. This was a difficult political period that coincided with the birth of populism in the US. Indeed, L. Frank Baum’s book The Wonderful Wizard of Oz is regarded by some as a clever political satire, a parable on populism, and a commentary on monetary policy. References are numerous. Yellow brick road? Gold. Ruby slippers? In the book, they were silver, and a reference to a populist demand for ‘free and unlimited coinage of silver and gold’ at the 16:1 ratio. Scarecrow? Farmers who weren’t as dim as first thought. Tin Man? Industrial workers. Flying monkeys? Plains Indians. The Cowardly Lion? William Jennings Bryan, Nebraska representative in Congress and later the democratic presidential candidate. Emerald City, where the Wizard lives? Washington DC. The Wizard, an old man whose power is achieved through acts of deception? Well, pick any politician in Washington. Now can you guess what ‘Oz’ is a reference to? Yes, the unit for precious metals. These parallels are discussed in more detail by Quentin P. Taylor, Professor of History, Rogers State College in a fascinating essay “Money and Politics in the Land of Oz.

As an empire built upon a succession of dynasties, China had never had a fixed name as a country, nor anything like a universally shared national language, nor for that matter anything remotely resembling a national history. Here again, Liang Qichao played a leading role, in essays like his 1901 “Introduction to Chinese History,” helping formulate an idea of the nation for the first time. “What I feel most shameful of is that our country does not have a name. The name of the Han or people of Tang are only names of Dynasties, and the name ‘China’ that foreign countries use is not a name that we call ourselves.” From Hawaii two years earlier, Liang had written, “The Chinese people do not even know there is such a thing as a national people [guomin]. After several thousand years, there have been the two words guo jia [state, family] but I have never heard the two words guo min [state, people] ever uttered.

Writer Derek Thompson makes a similar point in an essay for The Atlantic, “Three Theories for Why You Have No Time.” Inspecting the decades since the introduction of labor-saving technologies and appliances, Thompson notes that we don’t have more free time on our hands now. “Americans tend to use new productivity and technology to buy a better life rather than to enjoy more downtime in inferior conditions. And when material concerns are mostly met, Americans fixate on their status and class, and that of their children, and work tirelessly to preserve and grow it.

The only way for me to write this introduction is to separate the man from the ideas. Otherwise, I get pulled back into the man, who I loved and was married to from 1993 until his death in 2010, rather than forward into the ideas.

The biggest shame, our biggest shame, is that—as a child doing a simple homework assignment, or on a field trip, receiving hugs in a civil rights exhibit—I so easily internalized my nation’s wreckage. That because my sociocultural introduction to myself was framed by sorrow and inadequacy, I felt those things to be both my history and destiny. I internalized the obligation of apologizing, repenting, making up for myself. These were hard tasks to confront, as I did not know what I was apologizing for.

While the spirit of 'The Hunt for Satoshi' is quite different to the following books of sci-fi/speculative fiction, I owe a debt to Neal Stephenson's 'Cryptonomicon', William Gibson's 'Pattern Recognition' and especially Vernor Vinge's 'True Names'. The latter was packaged with a collection of relevant essays with an introduction by Hari Kunzru in 2016. For anyone interested in the origins and philosophy of crypto, I'd suggest starting with those essays.

The object of this essay is to assert one very simple principle, as entitled to govern absolutely the dealings of society with the individual in the way of compulsion and control, whether the means used be physical force in the form of legal penalties or the moral coercion of public opinion. That principle is that the sole end for which mankind are warranted individually or collectively, in interfering with the liberty of action of any of their number is self-protection. That the only purpose for which power can be rightfully exercised over any member of a civilized community, against his will, is to prevent harm to others. His own good, either physical or moral, is not a sufficient warrant. He cannot rightfully be compelled to do or forbear because it will be better for him to do so, because it will make him happier, because, in the opinions of others, to do so would be wise or even right.

THE AUTHOR OF almost every book retards his instructions by a preface,’ wrote Johnson, less than two years after the Dictionary was published. This was in an introductory essay for the New Year issue of Dodsley’s evening paper the London Chronicle. Johnson was paid just one guinea for the piece, but, as was his wont, made the best of a job that others would have executed in more desultory fashion. He was a prolific author of prefaces and introductions, and was aware of the faults of the work he did in this strain. Prefaces, he knew, are usually attempts to avert criticism, or to respond to it. They are opportunities to improvise a few paragraphs of complacent autobiography. They are excuses to lambaste the deficiencies of other writers, or of the republic of letters, or of the world at large. The

The facts of science always imply a theoretical, which means a symbolic, element.

Clifford” is an important psychedelic researcher, group leader, and writer. He is currently writing a book of personal essays. Student days at the University of California at San Diego were a whirlwind blending of 1960s’ issues with the academic pressure necessary to enter postgraduate training of some sort. My personal choices were between psychology and medicine. My introduction to psychedelics had convinced me of their value. I was taking a biology course to prepare for medical school, and we were studying the development of the chick embryo. After the first meeting of the one-quarter-long course, I realized that in order to stay alert, a tiny dose of LSD could be useful. With that in mind, I licked a small, but very potent, tablet emblazoned with the peace sign before every class. This produced a barely noticeable brightening of colors and created a generalized fascination with the course and my professor, who was otherwise uninteresting to me. Unfortunately, when finals came around, my health disintegrated and I missed the final exam. The next day I called my professor and begged for mercy. She said, “No problem, come to my lab.” “When shall we schedule this?” She suggested immediately. With some dismay, I agreed that I would meet her within an hour. I reached into the freezer and licked the almost exhausted fragment of the tablet I had used for class. I decided that there was so little left I might as well swallow it all. At

On “theatricality” as a descriptor, see the essays in the special issue “Theatricality,” ed.

In the autumn of 1788 he entered at Tübingen as a student of theology; but he showed no interest in theology: his sermons were a failure, and he found more congenial reading in the classics, on the advantages of studying which his first essay was written. After two years he took the degree of Ph.D., and in the autumn of 1793 received his theological certificate, stating him to be of good abilities, but of middling industry and knowledge, and especially deficient in philosophy.

As one commentator has noted, “[t]‌he more impressive and useful introductions are thoughtful essays in which the judges identify the issue to be resolved in broader historical and philosophical legal contexts.

Millions of developers use GitHub to manage repositories, collaborate on open-source projects, and showcase their programming portfolios. Given GitHub’s central role in the software development landscape, an emerging trend has drawn attention in recent years: the buying and selling of GitHub accounts. This practice, while seemingly obscure, raises serious questions around digital identity, security, trust, and ethics. In this essay, we will examine the reasons individuals and organizations might seek to buy GitHub accounts, the risks and legal implications associated with such transactions, the role of digital reputation, and the broader consequences for the developer community and platform integrity. Why People Buy GitHub Accounts 1. To Acquire Reputational Value One of the primary motivations for purchasing a GitHub account is the desire to inherit its reputation. GitHub accounts that have numerous repositories, followers, stars, or contributions—especially to popular open-source projects—may be perceived as more credible or experienced. For someone attempting to quickly build credibility in the tech community, acquiring a seasoned account could be seen as a shortcut. This motivation is especially relevant for freelancers, job seekers, or aspiring influencers in the developer ecosystem. Employers and clients sometimes evaluate a developer's GitHub profile to assess their competence. An account with years of contribution history and well-maintained repositories can serve as a powerful portfolio—even if the current holder is not the one who built it. 2. For Spamming or Malicious Intent Unfortunately, another common reason for buying GitHub accounts is for malicious purposes. Cybercriminals or spammers may purchase old, established accounts to conduct phishing schemes, upload malicious code, or distribute harmful software disguised as legitimate open-source projects. Since older accounts are often trusted more by GitHub's algorithms and by users, these activities are more likely to succeed under the radar. Accounts with verified contributions to known projects may even be used to insert backdoors into software dependencies, creating risks across the software supply chain—a problem that has become more urgent with the rise of dependency-based development. 3. To Circumvent Bans or Platform Restrictions Some users buy GitHub accounts to bypass bans, restrictions, or flagged behaviors associated with their original accounts. Since GitHub enforces rules around behavior, spam, or abuse, an account that has been banned might lead the user to seek another identity. Purchasing an already-established account allows them to resume activity with minimal friction. 4. To Participate in Developer Programs or Perks GitHub offers various benefits to active users, including access to free or discounted development tools through GitHub Student Developer Pack or GitHub Sponsors. Some individuals purchase accounts to fraudulently gain access to these programs, exploiting

A good example is what’s happening in schools and colleges, given that AI can generate essays and pass college exams. Let’s be clear—AI is no threat to education, any more than the introduction of the calculator was. With the right oversight, it can be a valuable learning tool. But to get there, teachers will have to overhaul their curricula, their teaching strategies, and their exams.

The great Harvard psychologist Gordon Allport had died years before I entered the program, but he had written an "Epistle to Thesis Writers" that was still being handed down from generation to generation of doctoral candidates. Allport tried to steer students away from the clutter and fog of professional prose and offered as a model an essay by a ten-year-old girl, who, he wrote, merited a higher degree "if not for the accuracy of her knowledge, then at least for the clarity of her diction": 'The bird that I am going to write about is the Owl. The Owl cannot see at all by day and at night is as blind as a bat. 'I do not know much about the Owl, so I will go on to the beast I am going to choose. It is the Cow. The Cow is a mammal. It has six sides—right, left, an upper and below. At the back it has a tail on which hangs a brush. With this it sends the flies away so that they do not fall into the milk. The head is for the purpose of growing horns and so that the mouth can be somewhere. The horns are to butt with, and the mouth is to moo with. Under the cow hangs the milk. It is arranged for milking. When people milk, the milk comes through and there is never any end to the supply. How the cow does it I have not yet realized, but it makes more and more. The cow has a fine sense of smell; one can smell it far away. This is the main reason for the fresh air in the country. 'The man cow is called an ox. It is not a mammal. The cow does not eat much, but what it eats it eats twice, so that it gets enough. When it is hungry it moos, and when it says nothing it is because its inside is all full up with grass.' —From the introduction to *The Best American Science and Nature Writing: 2004*—

Among them, Cash App has become a major player in the U.S., offering users an easy way to send and receive money, link bank accounts, buy Bitcoin, get a debit “Cash Card,” and more. A key feature in using such services is account verification — the process by which the user proves their identity to unlock higher limits and full functionality. The phrase “verified account” hence carries appeal: it suggests the account is fully enabled, trusted, legitimate, and free from restrictions. Yet the concept of a “verified account” is not just a convenience—it also comes with important responsibilities, regulatory oversight, and risks. Some users seek to circumvent the verification process or acquire already‑verified accounts, looking to skip the paperwork or time delay. That raises serious issues: from violations of the service’s terms of service, to increased risk of fraud, identity theft, and financial loss. In this essay I’ll explore: what verification means for Cash App; how the process works; why users care about being verified; the limits and restrictions of unverified vs verified accounts; the risks associated with unofficial “verified account” trading/acquisition; the legal and ethical dimensions; and best‑practice advice for legitimate users.

A verified Cash App account is one where the service has confirmed the user’s identity by collecting official details such as full legal name, date of birth, and the final four digits of a Social Security number. Verification raises sending and receiving limits, unlocks direct deposit and cryptocurrency features, and reduces the chance of temporary holds. It simplifies account recovery, supports compliance with financial rules, and increases trust when transacting with others. To verify, users submit required documents and await approval. Even verified accounts must follow security practices like enabling two factor authentication, using unique passwords, keeping contact details current, and reviewing transaction history regularly. Verification does not replace vigilance. Buy Verified Cash App Accounts Why Choose a Verified Cash App Account? Choosing a Verified Cash App Account ensures safety, credibility, and smooth transactions. With verification, your account gains higher sending and receiving limits, reducing restrictions and allowing you to manage money more effectively. It also adds trust when dealing with businesses or individuals, as verified accounts are considered more reliable. Enhanced security features protect your funds from unauthorized access, while compliance with Cash App policies keeps your transactions risk-free.

PayPal, established in 1998, is one of the most widely used online payment systems globally. With over 400 million active accounts as of 2025, PayPal allows users to send money, receive payments, shop online, link bank accounts and credit cards, and even engage in business transactions. A key aspect of maximizing PayPal’s utility is account verification. A “verified PayPal account” is one that has completed the platform’s identity verification process, which typically involves confirming the user’s bank account, credit/debit card, and personal information. Verified accounts enjoy higher transaction limits, access to business tools, and greater credibility. Conversely, unverified accounts face restrictions and heightened scrutiny. The topic of verified PayPal accounts has gained attention because some users attempt to circumvent the verification process or acquire pre-verified accounts through unofficial means. This raises serious legal, ethical, and financial concerns. This essay explores the concept of verified PayPal accounts, the verification process, its advantages, the risks of circumventing verification, and best practices for legitimate users.

Some of the key benefits include: Higher transaction limits: Unverified accounts often have restrictions on sending or receiving money. Verified accounts can send and receive larger amounts without triggering automatic holds or limitations. Access to business tools: Verified accounts can create PayPal business accounts, send invoices, accept payments for goods and services, and integrate with e-commerce platforms like Shopify, eBay, and Etsy. Greater security and protection: Verified accounts benefit from stronger fraud detection and prevention measures. PayPal offers seller and buyer protection programs, which are often more effective when the account is verified. Reduced risk of account limitations: Unverified accounts are more likely to be flagged for suspicious activity or temporary limitations. Verified accounts are less likely to encounter these interruptions. Credibility and trust: In transactions involving strangers, verified accounts signal reliability and legitimacy, which is crucial for online marketplaces, freelance work, and peer-to-peer payments.

For some, buying a pre-made Facebook account (or multiple accounts) looks like a tempting shortcut: instant followers, ready access to groups, or existing history that might lend credibility. But shortcuts like this carry steep, often invisible costs — legal, financial, reputational, and practical. In 2025–26, platforms like Meta continue to invest heavily in detection, verification, and enforcement; the landscape favors authenticity and transparency. This essay explains why purchasing accounts is dangerous, what the real consequences are, and—most importantly—how to achieve the same business goals through legal, sustainable, and higher-ROI alternatives. Why people consider buying accounts Many buyers are motivated by understandable business goals: accelerate growth, access large communities, avoid the grind of organic follower-building, or sell products quickly. Small businesses, new creators, or political campaigns might rationalize that an account with followers is just a tool to be used. Others fall prey to scams promising aged accounts, verified status, or “safe” transfer of ownership. It’s easy to see the appeal — until reality sets in. Platform policy and legal consequences Meta’s Terms of Service and Community Standards explicitly prohibit buying, selling, or transferring accounts in ways that misrepresent identity or violate policies. Beyond platform rules, account purchases can violate local laws around fraud, impersonation, and electronic communications depending on how the account is used. If an account is linked to stolen credentials or was created with fraudulent identification, buyers may find themselves entangled in legal risk. Even if legal action doesn’t follow, permanent account suspension is a likely and immediate outcome. Security risks: you get what you pay for — and often less

When a GitHub account is suspended, the consequences can be serious: loss of access to code repositories, disrupted workflows, loss of contributors, damage to reputation and potential financial or operational impact. Understanding why suspensions happen and how to avoid them is therefore critical. In this essay we will explore: What a GitHub account suspension means, Common causes of suspensions, The process for appealing or recovery, Preventive measures you can take to protect your account, Special considerations for teams and organizations. What Does “Account Suspension” on GitHub Mean? GitHub’s Terms of Service and policy documentation give GitHub the right to suspend or terminate access to all or part of the service at any time. A suspension means your account login is blocked, your ability to push/pull or operate may be restricted, and you may lose access to private repositories or features. In many cases the content itself (public repos, forks, etc) remains visible or preserved, but your ability to manage it may be lost. Furthermore, GitHub provides an appeal and reinstatement process for those who believe a suspension was in error or have addressed the violation. However, it’s important to recognize that many suspensions are automatic, immediate, and may occur with little or no prior warning. Common Causes of Suspensions Below are several of the frequent reasons GitHub accounts get suspended, grouped into categories. 1. Violation of Community Guidelines / Acceptable Use Policies GitHub’s Community Guidelines outline behaviours they will not tolerate: harassment, hate speech, impersonation, malware, phishing, and so on. If you or someone using your account engages in such behaviour, account suspension is a possible consequence. Examples of violations: publishing malicious code, using the service for phishing, distributing malware via repos, harassing other users, or impersonating another developer. 2. Terms of Service Breaches Beyond community behaviour, GitHub’s Terms of Service and API Terms define more technical/broad obligations. For example: Abusing or excessively using the GitHub API in violation of rate limits or for scraping/spamming. Buying or selling of accounts is disallowed and may trigger suspension. Use of the platform for illegal activity or services subject to trade control or sanctions. (Contact Us) ✅Telegram: @UsaViralExon ✅WhatsApp:‪+1 (434) 948-8942‬ ✅Email: usaviralexon@gmail.com 3. Security-Related Reasons (Compromised Account, Suspicious Activity) Accounts may also be suspended if GitHub detects unusual or suspicious activity — for example, large unusual pushes, login from unusual locations/devices, automated activity that triggers abuse-detection systems, or compromised credentials. One Reddit user described: “My account was just about to commit a change … I got back ‘remote: Your account is suspended.’ … We recently noticed your account had a suspicious login.” Suspension here is in part a protective measure — to prevent malicious actors from doing more damage.

For developers, engineers, and organizations, GitHub stands as the most popular platform for version control and collaborative software development. Millions of repositories are hosted on GitHub, containing open-source projects, corporate codebases, and sensitive intellectual property. With such immense value stored in GitHub accounts, the importance of protecting them from unauthorized access cannot be overstated. Unauthorized access to a GitHub account can result in severe consequences, including code leaks, data breaches, reputation damage, and even financial loss. Therefore, understanding the best practices for securing your GitHub account is essential. This essay explores a comprehensive set of strategies and techniques for safeguarding your GitHub account against unauthorized access. 1. Use a Strong and Unique Password Your password is the first and most fundamental layer of protection for your GitHub account. Unfortunately, many breaches occur because of weak or reused passwords. Attackers often exploit leaked credentials from other sites or use brute-force attacks to guess weak passwords. To create a strong password: Use at least 12–16 characters combining uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. Avoid using dictionary words, names, or predictable sequences (like “12345” or “password”). Make your GitHub password unique — never reuse it on other websites. A password manager can help you generate and store strong, unique passwords without needing to remember them all. Examples include Bitwarden, 1Password, and LastPass. Using a password manager not only simplifies login but also ensures your credentials remain encrypted and protected. 2. Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) Even a strong password can be compromised through phishing or data breaches. That’s why GitHub recommends enabling two-factor authentication (2FA). Two-factor authentication adds a second layer of security to your account login process. After entering your password, you must provide a temporary verification code generated on your phone or hardware key. This means that even if someone steals your password, they cannot log into your account without access to the second factor. GitHub supports several 2FA methods: TOTP (Time-based One-Time Password) apps like Google Authenticator, Authy, or 1Password. Hardware security keys (e.g., YubiKey, Titan Security Key) using the FIDO2 or WebAuthn standard. SMS verification (though this is less secure and should only be used as a backup). Once you enable 2FA, make sure to store your recovery codes safely. These allow you to regain access to your account if you lose your device. 3. Review and Limit Authorized Applications Many developers integrate GitHub with third-party apps, CI/CD tools, and other automation services. While these integrations enhance productivity, they also introduce potential vulnerabilities. Each authorized app typically has access to parts of your GitHub data. If an app becomes compromised or poorly maintained, attackers could exploit that connection. To protect yourself: Go to your GitHub Settings → Applications → Authorized OAuth Apps. Review all connected apps and revoke access for any that you no longer use or trust. Before authorizing a new app, research its developer, reputation, and privacy policy. Only use verified integrations from reputable sources. Additionally, consider creating personal access tokens with limited scopes rather than giving full account access to an application.
