Paranoia is justified if it actually serves some purpose. Staying paralyzed and not doing anything because Someone Is Reading Your Data is not serving much of anything. Hint: those Someones have better things to do. LLM vendors really don't care about your bank statements, and if they were ever in a position to look, they'd prefer not to have them, as it just creates legal and reputational risks for them.

Unfortunately I laughed reading this as there is never neither reputation nor legal consequences in the US of A. They can leak your entire life into my console including every account and every password you have and all PII of your entire family and literally nothing would happen… everything is stored somewhere and eventually will be used when “growth” is needed. some meaningless fines will be paid here and there but those bank statements will make their way to myriad of business that would drool to see them
If you think people not using a tool released yesterday are staying paralyzed you must be either working for Anthropic or an enthusiastic follower, in both cases your opinion is not valid. None of this is something that is revolutionary and People have created trillion dollar companies without Claude Max
They somehow have to make big money, so it's just a matter of time until they will sell services to others, based on your personal data. And they probably have some clause in their contracts where you give them the right doing it.
You don't remember when people were generating private keys and tokens using github copilot in the early versions? I'm not sure if they ever completely fixed the issue, but it was a bit scary.

I mean we had these before in other very similar topics regarding e.g. Snowden leaks but really a lot of things. So.. uh..
The wording is just so on the nose I'm refusing to believe that this was written in good faith by a real person. Good engagement bait tho.
