Like, do they not worry about people just editing everything and inserting porn or something? I doubt that they were smart enough to use branch protection. To be fair, when you're sending a mass spam campaign, you already don't worry about your reputation anyway lol

I once had a spambot @ me and like 100 other people I didn't know on a repo I'd never touched before.

I reported it for spam and got an email from Github Support within an hour notifying me that they had taken action.
