Need to make sure the diff is small enough. A tiny change that creates a bug or makes the answer effectively useless is much worse than sweeping changes

But that leaves a lot of good code. The bad parts are very unlikely to appear in the AI results due to the amount of good code in the training set.

I got banned as expected. For a month. After I'm unbanned, I'll edit a few characters every day. Not giving up. As unlawful it sounds, apparently you are not entitled to ask them to remove all your data.
