Yeah I'll pay for something that is just slightly better/faster than writing it myself but will practically speaking steal my code and give it to others that pay for the same product. /s

I'd say no thanks. I think programmers using Copilot is paying for something that'll hurt them in the long run for a tiny benefit in the short run.

I don't trust Microsoft, and neither should you.

Honestly, I don't think the code I write is so special that no one should ever see it. The whole product might be worth protecting, that's why the codebase isn't public. But the individual files/functions are not special in any way. And that'll be the case for 99%+ of all code.

Well yes, but I use repos just as any other dev does. Most of my own projects I have converted to Gitlab, but still some projects still exist on Github.
