using the current feed daemon code that detects when new users are created, look at the username of the new user and check it against any nicks in the BMO profiles that match. If the nick matches and the email addresses do not, then create some kind of alert or log message that can be used to alleviate the issue.

In the code I have currently, I am logging as a WARN when it finds a username that is potentially a squatter for someone else's nick. I am not sure if that is enough or if we should be taking a more aggressive approach. Should I disable the account with some explanatory text, should I email bugzilla-admin, or will the warn log messages be sufficient. Thoughts? dkl

Thoughts? given the current state of monitoring i think a WARN and an email to phabricator-admin makes sense (don't know if phabriator-admin exists, if not we should create one; it's self-service).

Yeah, agreed. dkl, can you see about creating a phabricator-admin list if one doesn't exist? Ensure glob, smacleod, yourself, and I are all on it.

Out of curiosity, were there any exceptions noted in the first pass of this?

The code we implemented looks at accounts as they are created so I would need to go through the list pre-deployment and see if anything sticks out right away. I didn't really do that before as Phab was still being used by a small group of Mozilla people so I didn't feel like I would fine any. I can make a point to take a look soon though. This is the current list of users https://phabricator.services.mozilla.com/people/ if you want to look as well. dkl
