Are you sure that's an actual, valid key? It looks like something that a GPT3 model would generate to me. (If you look closely, it just repeats the substrings c0d3 and b4c4c, so it's unlikely to be a real key.)


People noticed about a month ago, e.g. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27736460 I can't remember seeing an update or counter-measure from them since.


I missed that thread...


Just happened to me. I posted it to the private repo on GH as well.
