Exclusive: Microsoft To Shift GitHub Copilot Users To Token-Based Billing, Reduce Rate Limits Edward Zitron Apr 20, 2026 4 min read Executive Summary: Internal documents reveal that Microsoft plans to temporarily suspend individual account signups to Github Copilot, as it transitions from requests (single interactions with Copilot) towards token-based billing. The documents reveal that the weekly cost of running Github Copilot has doubled since the start of the year. Microsoft also intends to reduce the rate limits on its individual and business accounts, and to remove access to certain models for those with the cheapest subscriptions.
Exclusive: Microsoft is reducing rate limits on GitHub Copilot, removing Opus from $10-a-month subscriptions, and plans to move users to token/API-based billing some time later in 2026 in a sign that it's looking for way to cut costs for its AI services.

Full disclosure I've worked in a museum, been apprenticed to a restorer, done some restoration work, specialized in college in medieval materials.
I'm one of those longevity painters.
Not everyone is.
I'm always saying that art doesn't have mistakes, it has consequences. If you do x, y will happen. It's really important to know what y is in your process and choose accordingly.
And then be honest with your clients.
Unhappy to report the phishing one is quickly becoming a real problem now. Why go to the trouble of social engineering when people will just give up their ID, financial info, biometrics, etc. to an AV portal? There's no standards so how can you differentiate a fake one from a real one?
