    As a github user who gets random spam-mail from companies scraping github every few weeks - how can I ensure my profile is never offered upon your site?

    The ranking is not to my taste. It ranks followers about 1000x higher than contributions.

    You should call it popularity contest, not recruiter ranking. I'm not sure recruiters favor popular people over active people. It's not for recruiting politicians.

    "Git" is trademarked. You can't just arbitrarily use it for your own products—especially when Git plays almost no part—your service has everything to do with GitHub and essentially nothing to do with Git.
