> As to the option, I do not, I wasn't even aware of the option, but it's pretty silly to me that's not on by default, or even really an option. That should probably be enabled with no way to toggle it without editing the extension.

why is no one aware of that option in this case? the person who tweeted this stuff even calls out that setting when he requests that others test it.

no one fucking reads; they react and they say their ignorant piece and they shit on GitHub and Microsoft and they move on to the next thing.

You said, "don't reproduce code verbatim" as the option. Maybe you should use the actual name of the option if you want people to know what you're talking about. The "with public code blocked" option I am aware of, and is distinctly different from what you said. Don't be a dick, and if you want to be a dick, be right the first time or fuck off, and since you weren't correct may I suggest that option to you now.
