  • The post states the operator opened a second GitHub account under the name Josue Valdivia, put a guestbook on it, and that his associates signed it. The second post shows a reverse image search establishing that the photograph used for the Josue identity was taken from a Pinterest account belonging to somebody else; that person is recorded in the held-back list rather than here. The third post shows the guestbook itself.
