Its also a fake profile. 90+ hits for the image on Tineye.

Name also maps to a Holocaust victim.

I posted in the other thread that I think someone deleted it.

Looks like the bot is still posting:

https://crabby-rathbun.github.io/mjrathbun-website/blog/post...

I reported the bot to GitHub, hopefully they'll do something. If they leave it as is, I'll leave GitHub for good. I'm not going to share the space with hordes of bots; that's what Facebook is for.

How do you report that account to GitHub? I believe that accounts should be solely for humans and bots (AI or not) only via some API key should be at all times distinguishable and treated as a tool and not part of the conversations.

Which profile is fake? Someone posted what appears to be the legit homepage of the person who is accused of running the bot so that person appears to be real.

The link you provided is also a bit cryptic, what does "I think crabby-rathbun is dead." mean in this context?

would like to know as well
