  • Written as a reply to Group-IB's research on a network of synthetic developer personas. The researcher says these accounts are reachable from the mr.new0509 address by following its reuse across profiles, and calls them first-degree relationships only, so the set is not presented as complete. No operator name is attached to any of them. The address itself is already indexed from Group-IB's own report and is repeated here so the accounts and the address carry the same citation. The researcher gives each account's numeric GitHub identifier alongside its handle and recommends recording it, because the identifier survives a rename and the handle does not: elegant-idn 139725778, Iyk-Tech22 66622175, Malsaid1987 53496597, minionhub 131043067, jimmynet444 158188955, admin-0123 104113428, codeninja9x 131269268, ApolloComet 137799307, mountain4989 158185424, bitcrusher1023 126678955, dluoulb 158235347, dtorres314 161058350, starmastar1126 67782634. Group-IB replied to the same post that it had reported the accounts to GitHub before publishing and that some had already been taken down, so a handle here may no longer resolve.
