Though OPs example is easier for the general population to understand.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

Yes, but mostly because the general population likely isn't super familiar with Bittorrent and PirateBay.

A better, yet similarly correct explanation would be to say GitHub is to Git what GMail is to email.

This also doesn't confuse protocol and content, and it doesn't require knowledge of piracy.
