Just mark it as spam, put it on blacklists and move on. If one decides to put their business domain into the abyss of undeliverability it's a costly mistake they make once.

On a different note, it might be a worthwhile idea to put profiles behind extra protection. An extra click to see contact info verified by a smart captcha might be the least breaking change. @dang

HN doesn't publish emails on their profiles unless you do it explicitly and the vast majority of people don't do that.

Yes, and it seems GP is requesting a feature where we can publish our emails but behind a layer protective verification. We could still also do various obfuscation behind that, but it would still be an improvement, and reduce friction to creating contacts here.
