I would argue this article is different in that it is about a specific individual and his past rather than the group.

Also, I couldn't find the same information (specifically, ownership or mention of Tesla.Sexy LLC both in article and the comments) as the one I submitted.

edit: wording

I realize political content is in general discouraged here, but I feel this particular instance (rather, the backlash of replies) may be of interest as a "catalyst" post considering the entity in question is, I think, pretty widely known by this point on the nerd/hacker internet.

Title was taken from their second reply.

In addition to what the other replies have said, just a couple of years ago some company or group was running a competition which gave away something and caused a bunch of nuisance PRs adding almost literal garbage to READMEs. After criticism the ones running the competition eventually said repository owners could opt-out. This is only from recollection so I might have some things wrong about it. Fortunately it hasn't repeated itself.

This sounds like Hacktoberfest with Digital Ocean, specifically. I could also be wrong, but that is the one that stood out to me.
