Spammy advertising #14

Closed dylanpyle closed 7 years ago

dylanpyle commented 7 years ago

I just received a spam email from info@cleveroad.com advertising this repository. It seems I've been added to some sort of mailing list also, since there's an unsubscribe link. I have expressed no interest in this and have not agreed to receive any notifications.

This violates the GitHub terms of service, which states:

You may not scrape GitHub for spamming purposes

We are really sorry that our email seems spammy to you as it was sent with good intentions. Considering you as an active and keen GitHub user, we thought you might be interested in another library that gains popularity day by day. We’re sorry to have bothered you and that will not happen again.
