Oh wow that is bad!
On the up side: when submitting that as a paper to a journal, they will need to indicate that informed consent was given by the study participants. As they can't any such submission should not proceed.
At least as minimum standard for any social sciences journal. We do have clear ethic guidelines for that after all ...in theory apparently :(

So... We wanted open peer review to make science better. Instead, we accidentally trained bots to do peer review. Love that for us.

"other efforts had mostly focused on English-language content and were locked behind paywalls or limited to a specific subfield of psychology. Our collection would thus serve as a valuable resource (...), bridging an accessibility gap for tools that are readily available in the West".
