If you are a EU citizen you might also want to write a complaint to [email protected] because they are collecting your personally identifiable information in machine-readable form which they are distributing to third parties.

It’s not, but it may be violation of licenses. And also, if it has personal information on it, that’s probably illegal under the GDPR.
Modern tech companies love using the rapsist’s model of consent.
Meanwhile at work we just had a training course that specifically said doing “opt out” instead of “opt in” violates the principle of informed consent.
Notice how a shit load of these people keep turning up to be rapists and pedophiles… They have no shits to give about informed consent. In their mind you don’t even have the right to the same agency they do.
Kinda hope it uses my code. It’s so terrible there’s no doubt it will make the resulting code from the model worse even if the impact is miniscule
I just opted out of all my repos except the God awful ones from middle and highschool. Those are basically prompt poison so fuckem
Unless I’m mistaken, this wasn’t written by the folks that scaped GitHub in the first place, someone just wrote a small tool to semi-automate the process of searching the scraped dats, and submitting a GitHub issue to have it removed.
