Am I missing something? Non-paid versions also have to opt-in, no?

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 4 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

My reading just based on the post above is that none paid versions are sharing by default but can be changed to off. All other versions are off by default but can be changed to on.

I don't understand what the advantage to the developer is supposed to be to let AI scrape their code.

I think I misread a statement about existing users not having their changes changed possibly on an update?

For individuals using JetBrains IDEs with commercial licenses, free trials, free community licenses, or EAP builds who do not explicitly consent to the new data collection model – nothing changes.
