Great analysis, well done ! Since you've already done VSCode, Trae, Cursor, can you analyse Kiro (AWS fork). I'm curious about their data collection practices.

Anecdata but Kiro is much, much, much, much easier to put through corporate procurement compared to its peers. I'm talking days vs months.

This is not because it is better and I've seen no inclination that it would somehow be more private or secure, but most enterprises already share their proprietary data with AWS and have an agreement with AWS that their TAMs will gladly usher Kiro usage under.

Interesting to distinguish that privacy/security as it relates to individuals is taken at face value, while when it relates to corporations it is taken at disclosure value.

This seems perfectly rational. If you're already entrusting all your technical infrastructure to AWS, then adding another AWS service doesn't add any additional supply-chain risk, whereas adding something from another vendor does do that.
