Hi Guixy people,

I’d never heard of SWH before I started hacking on Guix last fall, 
and it struck me as rather a good idea.  However, I’ve seen some 
things lately which have soured me on them.

They appear to be using the archive to build LLMs: 
https://www.softwareheritage.org/2024/02/28/responsible-ai-with-starcoder2/

I was also distressed to see how poorly they treated a developer 
who wished to update their name: 
https://cohost.org/arborelia/post/4968198-the-software-heritag 
https://cohost.org/arborelia/post/5052044-the-software-heritag

GPL’d software I’ve created has been packaged for Guix, which I 
assume means it’s been included in SWH.  While I’m dealing with 
their (IMO: unethical) opt-out process, I likely also need to stop 
new copies from being uploaded again in the future.

Is there a way to indicate, in a Guix package, that it should 
*never* be included in SWH?

Is there a way to tell Guix to never download source from SWH?

I want absolutely nothing to do with them.

Thanks,

  — Ian
