My point was not that those critical of CoPilot are in a majority, it is that our perspective is important because our labour is what makes copilot possible.

What proportion of its capability is derived from the labor of people who don't like it? I get your point about feeling like an unwilling contributor while github/MS harvests revenue from people who like it. But there's an implication here of being in a critical majority, which I am not convinced is the case.
