Napptive.com kubernetes junk

This is higly scummy. I'm pretty sure this company, Napptive, scraped my email address from my commits on GitHub. Their pathetic little "legitimate interest" footer is ridiculous, especially when they're in direct violation of GDPR (and the UK's version of it).

Please advise on investment opportunities in your country

I'm fairly sure this is using hijacked mail servers. An attempt was made to inform the company that appears to own said mail servers.
