> At GitHub, we store a lot of Git data: more than 18.6 petabytes of it, to be precise.

About $ 250 000 for 1000 HDDs and you get all the data. Meaning private persons such as top FAANG engineers could get a copy of the whole data after 2-3 years job. For companies dealing with AI such raw price is nothing at all.
