That account also seems to be taken down. Also, I contacted PublicDomainRegistry and the link associated - anti-bot.icu have been taken down. But I am sure this is part of a bigger phishing scam. If you have any leads or information free free to tell me, I am trying to get to the bottom of whatever this mess is.
unfortunately forem hasnt added my DevGuard PR yet, if they had, we'd have been able to blacklist their browser sessions and IP. Honestly, I think this is someone who is doing it personally, rather than a larger org. Reasoning for that, is I went after the 1 account and 90+ comments were identical, I commented on each warning people. Then the first break in the change 'Nice bro' and after that, they tried to comment 3 more times with the same copy-paste botting, but that Nice bro had to have been from a human browser, not via the bot... Which means someone was monitoring the bots and responded, which would probably have been the best lead at finding out who and where they are. But that account was taken down and forem doesnt check browser states, so the IP is as good as gone.
