@timbray I no longer have code in Github, but turned off those settings anyway. Hopefully, someone at Redmond is keeping track of the number of people who do.

(because some people like to keep their account to interact with important projects who remain on Github, for the "delete your account" sorts).

@timbray Where is the "and delete any historical usage of it from before you got around to asking my permission you greedy thieving bastards" button?

@timbray If you disable it for your account, does it disable it for all forks of your code?

@timbray If you're a part of an organization that has bought into Copilot Business, you can't do that.

@timbray No. You get the fuck out, that’s the only way.

@timbray I think this toggle is about training Copilot on your use of Copilot. They'll continue to train on your code regardless.

@timbray my code is so bad I'll keep the default setting in order to hurt big tech companies

@Anibyl @timbray

Obv don't use your personal account for that. Create one for the specific purpose.

@timbray even better option is to leave github, there are plenty of alternatives - gitlab.com, codeberg.org, gitea.com. I left github in 2018 after they fell under micro$oft.

@timbray Why are these on by default?? I guess GitHub execs don't believe in asking for consent.
