Comment:

 Unfortunately if your non-dot org plugin has an identical slug to a plugin
 on dot org and the version number is higher on dot org then your plugin
 will be updated with the dot org plugin.

 You can either create a version number that's much higher than the one on
 dot org or use a different updater for your plugin. GitHub Updater has a
 filter to override an identical slug from dot org updating on top of your
 plugin.
