Lazy web, I'm looking for a toggle to disable Copilot Reviews in GitHub repos.

When a PR contributor has Copilot enabled, they can essentially override the maintainers' wish not to enable Copilot reviews. Unless the repo is in an Enterprise organization, where it can be blocked at the org level.

https://github.blog/open-source/maintainers/welcome-to-the-eternal-september-of-open-source-heres-what-we-plan-to-do-for-maintainers/ ignored this and even claimed an "Eternal September" (sloppy nostalgia), while the most obvious thing wasn't mentioned.

Welcome to the Eternal September of open source. Here's what we plan to do for maintainers.

As contribution friction drops, maintainers are adapting with new trust signals, triage approaches, and community-led solutions.
