sudo apt-mark hold raspberrypi-sys-mods

#Redirect calls to packages.microsoft.com to localhost

sudo echo "0.0.0.0 packages.microsoft.com" >> /etc/hosts

#remove MS Key file

sudo rm -vf /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/microsoft.gpg

#create empty dummy key file

sudo touch /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/microsoft.gpg

#lock the dummy key file

sudo chattr +i /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/microsoft.gpg

#comment out vscode.list

sudo sed -i 's/deb/#deb/' /etc/apt/sources.list.d/vscode.list

#lock the vscode.list file

sudo chattr +i /etc/apt/sources.list.d/vscode.list
