Looks like you can turn it "off" under the copilot section of your github preferences.
Until they add a new AI feature enabled by default or secretly turn it back on
Under coding agent I also changed "Repository access" to "No access"
I dropped off LinkedIn when MS bought it. I dropped off github when MS bought it.
I stand by these decisions.
Hopefully, Ubuntu also.
I try to avoid snap or flatpak anything
@GossiTheDog Orgs that should care wont care because they use other orgs code too. All up until no new code is actually created.
I suspect existing code will eventually get mutated into something inefficient or ineffective.
Hmm, sounds a lot like cancer.
@0x0ddc0ffee @GossiTheDog what even are copliot interactions? They call everything copilot.
I already felt icky on the rare occasions when I had to use github. But, just like all the other products where freer, less exoitative versions exist, people will just keep using them. Discord, reddit, blue fucking sky, windows, the entire god forsaken apple ecosystem.
I spent yesterday migrating my stuff from github to codeberg and I'm not coming back.
@GossiTheDog This doesn't appear to be accurate. From the howtogeek article linked in the original post:
> Importantly, the automatic data collection applies to both free and paid accounts. That includes Copilot Free, Copilot Pro, and Copilot Pro+ users, *but not Copilot Business and Copilot Enterprise accounts*.
I wouldn't put it past them doing this eventually to business clients too but at least for now that's not what they're doing at the moment.
