I never said GitHub was leaking me? I said someone who has a GitHub repo is scraping GitHub emails and spamming. Seems like the kind of ToS violation GitHub would want to know about.

I don’t think it violates ToS, it’s public data. One can even search for emails directly like this and get millions of matches
