Why do random communities appear on my instance? (random-hero.com)

There have appeared hundreds of communities on my instance I have never searched. Where do they come from? Is it some spam attack? How do I prevent this, and how do I get rid of them?

How do I configure mine to do so? I mean automatic defederation

I made an announcement post for my community here and it has a GitHub link. I think, the repository has a python script that'll do it.

Thanks! I wonder if there's a script that purges communities that have 0 subscribers on instance
