If i was stack overflow I would've transferred my backups to OpenAI weeks before the announcement for this very reason.
This is also assuming the LLMs weren't already fed with scraped SO data years ago.
It's a small act of rebellion but SO already has your data and they'll do whatever they want with it, including mine.
There’s also the possibility of adding to the wonderful irony of making the AI more useful than the original by having content that’s no longer accessible through through the original. It doesn’t get more enshittified than that, even if Prashanth Chandrasekar is too out of touch to ever regret his decision.
