ScanOSS spams OSS projects for using profanity

I really dislike the attitude that open source maintainers should adapt their code to comply with any bullshit requirements from random companies just so they can use the code. Be grateful that someone wrote code for you to use freely.

Goes straight onto my list of "software I will never use". Wasting the time of maintainers is not cool.

The dev&#x27;s own comment (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;scanoss&#x2F;purl2cpe&#x2F;issues&#x2F;24#issuecomment-2385851381">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;scanoss&#x2F;purl2cpe&#x2F;issues&#x2F;24#issuecomment-2...</a>) is infuriating:<p>&gt; For your information, bad language is banned in most organizations and, therefore, if you are interested in having adoption of your Open Source, it is good practice to avoid such language.<p>&gt; If you are not willing to receive contributions from the community, if you are not interested in your Open Source contribution gaining adoption, or if you prefer people to sign special agreements to make contributions, perhaps you are better off closing down your repository, making it private.<p>How about, if I release something for free, that I made on my own time, anyone can feel free not to use it if they don&#x27;t like how I&#x27;ve written it.<p>I don&#x27;t think I&#x27;ve even sworn in a public repo. I try to keep it professional. But if I did, and someone has a problem with it, they can write their own fucking software. They&#x27;re not paying me to cater to their whims.

If you ban one word of profanity people will invent others with the same meaning to avoid filters.

Simply use Github&#x27;s mechanisms to Report Abuse

&quot;As you have marked your project as Open Source, it&#x27;s important to maintain a professional and respectful tone throughout the codebase.&quot;<p>The only proper response to this is: &quot;No. It&#x27;s not. Fuck you. Fuck your mother, and fuck the fucking horse you rode in on, may you eat shit for the rest of your days and choke on it.&quot;<p>I mean, who even comes up with notions like this? What law of universe is there that dictates what attitude I must have when marking my software as open source?

God forbid if the bot hit any repos of those using Brain Fuck.

I don&#x27;t understand. ScanOSS has a bot that scans ScanOSS&#x27;s own repo, so what&#x27;s the issue?<p>What I see is that the bot was badly programmed and it did not ignore quoted text, so the first automated report triggered another bot response which quoted the swear word which triggered the bot a third time.

Who asked for this? Who demanded this? What is the problem that these people are trying to solve? What I&#x27;m trying to say is what the fuck is wrong with these people?

I&#x27;d suggest they consider renaming the bot PearlClutcherOSS; it would be a better explanation of what its contribution to the FOSS community is.
