GitHub has declared that, commencing April 24, 2026, it will, as a default setting, harness interaction data from Copilot Free, Pro, and Pro+ users for the purpose of training its AI models. This encompasses code snippets, input and output content, among other things, unless users take the initiative to manually opt out. Notably, Copilot Business and Enterprise users will remain unaffected by this alteration. This move, characterized as an "opt-out by default" approach, has triggered discontent among developers, who harbor concerns regarding data privacy and the preservation of their right to choose.
