By chance I came across this fact: https://github.com/rust-lang/crates.io/blob/85bf66e511788523db925410dedc30cf91bb44d1/src/tasks/dump_db/dump-db.toml#L215 Apparently, the information about _who_ published a particular crate version is publicly available in the data dumps. Although that [might not have been intended by all crates.io staff](https://github.com/rust-lang/crates.io/issues/2078#issuecomment-570577933).
