I'm confused. How do you know what account scraped your email address from github in order to send you an email?
Or do you mean going after the accounts of companies that make use of a likely scraped email address? That's not a bad idea either, but it has risks and isn't the same thing.
Half the time they literally say it in the email. I just looked in my spam folder and just a few hours ago got an email titled "Your profile: Github", that started with:
> I came across your profile on GitHub. Given you're based in the US, I thought it might be relevant to reach out.
>
> Profile: https://github.com/tedivm
That they use some of their trillion dollar marketshare to solve it, why are you acting like this is a hard problem? It's not. They're just too cheap and greedy to do anything about it.
Even if they were valued around $100million they would still have more enough resources to solve this problem. Stop excusing companies that hate hiring people and are so greedy they would rather punt this problem to the commons fucking over an entire community that literally enabled them to exist.
Come on here, even Meta hires people in Kenya to look at CP and snuff films to label this stuff. Meta! They literally profited off of a genocide and they still know how to do this.
One would expect people on Hacker News to know that a single business division doesn't have direct access to the funds of other business divisions of the same corporation.
