Hi I'm sure this is a stupid question and someone else probably asked it. But is Github Copilot safe to be used on private projects/repos. I'm sure you collect prediction analytics but that won't entail collecting actual code right? Like would i need to be worried using copilot in my work? Would it in any way possibly put my organization's codebase or data at risk?? Hope that made sense. Looks amazing though. Cheers!

The data copilot collects is detailed in the terms of service https://docs.github.com/en/github/copilot/github-copilot-telemetry-terms

I think the whole future is scary but exciting. Yes Copilot does collect personal data so just take precaution when working in private repos.
