Time to make up a conspiracy about key leading figures, and laugh as they disappear each other.

This is why you run stuff locally or not at all.

No I’m not surprised at all. This is necessary for any kind of auto save and auto complete. Not happy about my shit being stored in China, but “collects every keystroke” isn’t really news anymore.

If you’re worried about this kind of behavior, don’t use any website with auto save or auto complete, period.

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but is the accusation that they collect keystroke data from outside the app if you have it installed?

Question: if we bridge 2 ais and let them talk to one another, will they eventually poison each other with gibberish bullshit?

Better for my data to be in China than in the US
