There’s this weird github repository

https://github.com/OOOO00000000OOOO/OOOO00000000OOOO

I noticed there was someone attempting to proxy to this repository on my site, causing it to show up in the logs. It was detected as spam but this repo doesn’t look like it’s built by some normal spammy company. The owner has gone through great lengths to try to stay anonymous. And I can’t make out what the repo is or what it’s for. Does anyone know or have any ideas?

Thanks

    It’s insane, right? I was looking through the files and trying to find anything that made sense. None of it does. I thought it was some foreign or custom encoded programming language or something.

      It makes sense in Terry A. Davis/Temple OS sense. Someone mentally ill needs everything to be symmetrical. They substitute o with Ⓞ in www.gⓄⓄgle.com I think they use fancy unicode to have a bearable symmetrical font; And someday they found that they can upload stuff to github and they upload what they made.
