You laugh, but I was paid a decent hourly rate last year to update a COBOL program. About a decade ago they moved it into a mercurial repo, so I couldn't see history before that. I can't imagine the original app being less than 40 years old (probably 50.)

Spam is unsolicited communication sent in bulk. That's the exact intent of your tool.

The example given in the repository readme is literally cold call sales spam garbage. Can you name a single non-malicious purpose for this tool?

I’ve wanted this for years, if I wasn’t an idiot I would have built it myself..
