Found on 28 September 2026 by asking GitHub's commit search, for each of the addresses this index already holds under named personas and researcher dossiers, which account its commits are credited to. GitHub credits a commit to the account that has registered the author address, so each account below owns the address shown; the count is the commits credited in the search's first page. JohsuaDev holds dev@ninjadevllc.com (21); ecomdevsolutions holds lucas@bluestout.com (100); codetechie-G holds nickdev0118@gmail.com (30); kindsecret holds forever.xfactor@gmail.com (98); William-toptal-dev holds rainstorm.exp@gmail.com (100); Rom84U holds yamamotozunki0815@gmail.com (5); topi-debug holds takutic.tech518@gmail.com (1); LeroyS041 holds dounanpar@gmail.com (100); xiaoxinlou holds kstar0102@gmail.com (58); meonomoli1978 holds elegant.idn65@gmail.com (9); ByteBuddy1023 holds bitcrusher1023@gmail.com (6). An account was left out where the address may belong to a real person rather than the operator: a stolen-CV listing, a mirrored contributor's identity, a copied repository's upstream author, or an account with a long, verifiable history of its own.

Follows these indexed accounts

From gh-fake-analyzer 1.0.2, the Ketman Project's GitHub analysis tool, run on 2026-10-30. These are signals: backdated history and several commit identities are common among ordinary developers too, and an account that shows none of them is not thereby cleared.
