alt Hacker NewsI don't understand. ScanOSS has a bot that scans ScanOSS's own repo, so what's the issue?
What I see is that the bot was badly programmed and it did not ignore quoted text, so the first automated report triggered another bot response which quoted the swear word which triggered the bot a third time.

The first comment in the thread is a victim of ScanOSS's spam mocking them by opening an issue in their repo following the same format as their bot.

They are/were scanning random public projects and creating unsolicited bugs in those projects to chide them about profanity in their source code. The linked thread is just a bunch of the victims of that spam having some fun with the format.
