Unexpected activation of AI coding assistant on personal projects

Hey everyone,

I’m a bit confused and worried. I just noticed that an AI coding tool turned itself on in my private coding projects without me saying it was okay. Has anyone else had this happen?

I always thought I had to manually enable these kinds of tools, but this one just showed up out of nowhere. It’s kind of freaking me out because I’m working on some personal stuff that I’d rather keep private.

Is this normal behavior for AI coding assistants? Should I be concerned about my code’s privacy? I’d really appreciate any advice or similar experiences you all might have. Thanks!

woah that’s super weird! i had something similar happen with a different AI tool last month. it just popped up outta nowhere when i was coding. kinda freaked me out too. maybe check ur settings? there might be some auto-enable thing u accidentally turned on. def worth looking into for privacy reasons
