that arell.ai website which was cloning mastodon users for AI training is running via github pages, anyone know how I can find the repository and username associated with a github pages website? there is no links in the HTML but the server IP addresses all belong to github, and the favicon 404 page is served by github (with GH branding)
I found the repository blonging to this org, the website is owned by a company in the state of Delaware, USA, named "Arell Inc", the github contributors are celeste-arell and cmenders (who uses GPG Key ID: B5690EEEBB952194 for commits)
just in case anyone wants to dig further
EDIT: this GPG key belongs to github and exists because the user created changes via the web interface at github.com, it DOES NOT belong to the user, just to avoid any confusion here
oh also this organization is only one month old on github, so this is all very new, the GPG key for cmenders was verified with GH Jul 18, 2025

cmenders has an account at
https://github.com/cmenders
they appear to be a stanford student studying computer science, probably just dumb kids, they cloned a learning repository from stanford's CS153 intro course
