I remember them sending me an (unwanted) email because I had contributed to an unrelated Scala project on Github by reporting a bug.

Similar(ish) thing. I think I starred the project and about a year later I got an email out of the blue from them.

I get that I starred the project on github but that's hardly consent for an email.

Oh no, that's terrible. This comment should be at the top
