I agree that a ranking mechanism would be nice, but what do you mean by "fraud garbage"? I personally am not aware of any malicious package in the Racket ecosystem.
Ah, I see what you mean now. Yeah, that was indeed problematic. We kinda fixed this issue a while back by obfuscating emails (https://github.com/racket/racket-pkg-website/pull/88), but it doesn't help with already scraped emails. Also, the raw emails are still technically readable if one knows where to look at.

Perhaps they are referring to the fact that the package server does not hide the email of the contributor?
Not that this is a complaint worth airing on HN.
Solution: just block the alias that you use for the submission…
The email is obfuscated.

And has been for a long while.
