I rejected it way back when it was first introduced.

I don't want to get opted into it trying to opt out of something that's not even there if I'm not using it.

I removed everything from github some months ago when the former CEO resigned and Microslop took over. Codeberg.org is serving me just fine.

Meanwhile, it's nice to turn this shit off, just in case.
