Stop sending unsoliticed spam emails! #338

Closed tedmiston closed 1 year ago

tedmiston commented 1 year ago

As you are aware, spamming people by scraping their email address and other contact info from GitHub is a violation of the GitHub ToS that can result in getting your account banned.

https://docs.github.com/en/site-policy/github-terms/github-terms-of-service

I never gave you or your any company permission to contact me.

Great way to ruin a project that might otherwise have been interesting. Would recommend filing a report to Github if you also got a spam email. Github is the last place I need spam from.

@Malfrador It is standard practice to report to GitHub directly and post an issue for community visibility when this happens. Some people also post to HN. [Unfortunately this happens quite regularly.]

If you are claiming that holding companies accountable for harvesting contact info from GitHub to send unsolicited spam is "spam" itself, I strongly disagree.

The GitHub ToS are very clear that this is not permitted. The company chose to break the ToS.
