Warehouse: Spam report

Not necessarily spam, but at least a pretty despicable abuse of PyPi to advertise a service with keyword hijacking by @markolofsen

Might also be an infringement on Githubs AUP as the repositories contain advertising outside of the repository of its service source code. Will raise on that too

Really? No one cares? @dstufft

These packages have been removed.

@di we might also want to remove and ban "how-to-upload-package-to-pypi".

@pradyunsg It was removed, looks like it just didn't get purged from the cache.

Ah. Right. Can we add that to the removal process?

Should be, seems to be either temporarily not working or a bug.
