   *ticket created*

   Dear GitHub support,

   I have just been notified of access to GitHub Copilot having been added to my account, and I cannot find a way to disable that.

   I build my reputation on original software that I write, and I do not want risking accidental copyright infringement or worse by having github surreptitiously push "smart" features I do not need on my account.

   I am writing to ask for a complete removal of Copilot features from my account. Failing that, I would like a written confirmation that Copilot is not touching anything related to my account, and possibly a procedure I can use at any time to verify and prove that to my customers.

   Best regards,

   Enrico Zini

     Hi Enrico,
     
     Thanks for getting in touch.

     While Copilot is available for free, it still must be enabled by individuals before it can be used, like any feature. You have not enabled it, and not accepted the terms of service so Copilot is not active on your account.

     @aral @spanezz All I have on GH is a landing repo that sends people to @Codeberg .

     That seems to be the appropriate use for it.
