Call me overly cautious, but as someone using OpenClaw I never for a moment considered hooking it up to real external services as me. Instead I put it on one server and created a second server with shared services like Gitea and other self-hosted tools that are only accessible over a tailnet and openclaw is able to use those services. When I needed it to use a real external service I have created a limited separate account for it. But not a chance in the world am I going to just let it have full access to my own accounts on everything.

That's not overly cautious, that's smart. I do not think most OpenClaw users are taking the same sensible measures as you are.

In the other hand, the AI hit piece guy seems to have put similar "sensible measures" in place, at least giving the claw its own accounts. Look what that got them.

		He shared his prompt. He basically prompted that model to be the Kanye of science tool coding (ego wise, not the racism).

That is literally the only remotely safe approach.
