i hate how anthropic uses data. you cant convince me that what they are doing is "privacy preserving"

I agree. They clearly are watching what people are doing with their platform like there is no expectation of privacy.

Agree. It's the primary reason (IMO) that they are so bullish on forcing people to use claude code. The telemetry they get is very important for training.

I mean, that's pretty much the primary or secondary objective of half the tech companies in the world since doubleclick.

Yep, except this time its "We will take the data that you are generating in order to tell everyone that you aren't necessary anymore".

They’re using react, they are very opaque, they don’t want you to use any other mechanism to interact with their model. They haven’t left people a lot of room to trust them.
