You just got forced into data collection on GitHub. Turn it off here https://github.com/settings/copilot/features

@Aurimas I also got the notification about this. Strange enough for me it was disabled despite the notification saying I need to opt-out ‍️

@Aurimas What the actual hell. Thanks!

@britter @Aurimas it's because of this: https://androiddev.social/@msfjarvis/116291712251904064

@britter @Aurimas Yay, EU data protection laws.

@Aurimas From context, it seems to be about AI usage only, but with MSFT you never know how they’ll spin it, so probably a good idea

[heathborders@hachyderm.io]

@Aurimas thanks. I turned it off and disabled copilot

[mewsleah@meow.social]

@msfjarvis @britter @Aurimas i've never used copilot, i have its visibility disabled, and i still found i'd been opted in. so everyone has to check.

@Aurimas Thanks for the heads up.

@Aurimas The drop down is also very disingenuous: Getting your data stolen is a feature now.
