If you go do a search for their local users, you'll find a bunch of random ass bot names in their list. This was brought up in the past, but I think this instance is "dead" and now the only thing on the instance are unrelated bots. Registration is wide open, no captcha, no approvals, no email requirement. This might be old news, but these new bots are just spamming ads for things it would seem.

Anyway, just wanted to pass the info along.
