Is this post about Github seemingly detecting an incorrect licence? The project was relicenced in a later commit, so I dont think this behavior is entirely wrong.

What should it do instead? I think the only reasonable action would be not showing it if the licence file was changed.

IMO it should be re-recognizing it every time the license file is changed, but only showing a "click here to learn more about different licenses" would also be much better
