Kite is (was?) apparently expanding to more plugins, and also doing it to existing plugins.
That's not a battle you can win with manual diligence.

It's a battle you can win with forking and shunning any plugins they take over. That will show developers that injecting Kite into your popular project leads to it becoming very unpopular, very quickly.
Is there a reliable way to search github for projects that are managed by Kite? Looks like it is only mentioned in the readme, and it would be simple for kite to simply not put in references to kite.
Can't you do a code search for libraries or server names or something like that?

Although, we could create a machine learning plugin that uses a cloud service to detect Kite-infected plugins? ;)
