So this sucks.

GitHub has operated as a separate company ever since Microsoft acquired it in 2018 for $7.5 billion, but Dohmke’s departure is part of a big shakeup to the way GitHub operates. Microsoft isn’t replacing Dohmke’s CEO position, and the rest of GitHub’s leadership team will now report more directly to Microsoft’s CoreAI team.

If I were a cynical so-and-so, I'd wonder how long that "opt-in to training on your code" thing is gonna last.

@mttaggart@infosec.exchange Debating putting every fake and / or broken PoC in a repo along with vulnerable forks of outdated versions of applications and copious amounts of confident but erroneous comments. Then I'll opt in and let Copilot smoke on that a bit.

@mttaggart@infosec.exchange Oh I didn't realize they were respecting that.

@Epic_Null@infosec.exchange Even Meta tells the truth about its grody terms. Doing otherwise is pointlessly leaning in to costly class actions.
