I'm building an example repo to show off some stuff. Part of it is publishing it to npm...and it started getting downloads 👀. I didn't download it.. Guess I should update the README to explicitly mention this is just a DEMO

Too late. This is already a business critical part of my infra. BTW, where is the 24/7 free phone support?

These are pretty much all scanning tools (both white hat and probably black hat) that download every package version to run analysis for eg. Vulnerabilities. It's akin to bringing a HTTP server online and instantly getting hits to /wp-admin.php
