gitlab spam

[Bryan]

While familiarizing myself with gitlab.haskell.org, I noticed there's a ton of spam users and projects.

Does this have any practical effect on any of you?

Who (if anyone) is the moderation team that handles abuse reports?

While I don't think it's a high-priority concern for myself and I don't intend to address it right now, I'd like to at least know what kind of effect this is having on GHC devs.

There have already been 50+ users added today, and a random sample was 100% spam.

There are 84,000 users and 1700 projects in the system in total. I assume 90-99% of them are spam. Not really conducive to a balanced diet.
