You are scrapping names and emails from Github profiles to market via email your sh#t product.
This is illegal by virtue of the GDPR which requires either:

  1. Consent
  2. Contract
  3. Compliance
  4. Vital Interest, Public Interest, or Official Authority
  5. Legitimate Interest

for your scrapping to be lawful. I (and probably many more EU citizens) fall under none of these points, as such what you are doing is illegal and punishable by law.
I have contacted Github, Convertkit, your Incubator and my local authorities about this. Cease your activities at once.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

I have not seen any network requests in the source code or anything that would be... suspicious?

Do you have any evidence? I'm highly interested.
