alt Hacker NewsThis is happening to me as well. I have a few moderately popular open source projects and I have found my name attached to new projects that I have nothing to do with or they are derivatives of my projects with redirection to unknown sites.
Legitimate projects:
https://github.com/jimmc414/onefilellm
https://github.com/jimmc414/Kosmos
https://github.com/jimmc414/cctrace
Projects using my name which I have no affiliation with or they are projects I have written that they have injected new URLs into:

How do you find these? I don't want to search for my name on those dodgy sites, as that tells them my projects exist.
Idk if this is intentional or just part of an innocent site that’s unwittingly hosting these but I just got a “we’re verifying your browser” page, as if _I’m_ the suspicious one. Nice social engineering.
