Pre-RFC: crate creator rate limiting in docs.rs

Sure. I'm saying that reporting such behavior to GitHub is likely to get their abuse team on the case and shut down the backing GitHub accounts too (that is, crates.io is not necessarily on its own when dealing with account abuse).

Yup, and as long as they have GitHub accounts, that'll be a good way to handle it. But as @kornel pointed out in the other topic, you don't need a GitHub account to publish to crates.io (and thence to docs.rs). So relying on GitHub's policies won't solve it.
