| > Make sure you check this thing to see if it hasn't been re-enabled if you believe it to be off right now. Or simply switch to a competitor. Assuming this is not just a bug, why would one stand for such disrespectful and sneaky behavior? FWIW, I have not seen this happen for me. |

| what competitor? the x20 Max plan for Claude gives you way lover limits. |

| ▲ | dgellow 2 days ago | parent | next [-] | | Well, it’s a tradeoff. What do you prefer? To go with the service provider known to be shady but gives you lots of free stuff or the one that might be less shady and gives you less free stuff? | | |
| ▲ | CuriouslyC 2 days ago | parent [-] | | Anthropic is shady too my guy. Claude Code will frequently re-ask you to turn on data sharing even after you've said no, it's dark patterned like a task approval, and once you turn it on it's harder to turn off than OAI makes it. | | |
| ▲ | cma 2 days ago | parent | next [-] | | I've been asked over 15 times by Claude code to turn it back on (with the prompt defaulted on so if you accidentally hit enter your data is sucked in if you don't catch it). I do think it ended up being after a power outage though and it was some kind of config corruption. | |
| ▲ | troyvit 2 days ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | They did say "less shady" but at this point Anthropic and OpenAI are approaching parity. | |
| ▲ | dgellow 2 days ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | I hedged my comment by using the conditional tense + “less shady”, because I couldn’t find such issue reported. If you have a link I would be interested to read it. I’m just not aware of shady behavior from Anthropic with regards to training on user data | |

| And don't switch to Misanthropic lol. They are even worst... |
| |
| ▲ | dgellow 2 days ago | parent | next [-] | | Has Anthropic been found re-enabling that checkbox? I cannot find anything on that topic | |

| ▲ | danillonunes 2 days ago | parent | next [-] | | Reminds me the days people would write Micro$oft (usually in Linux vs Windows discourse). It's funny to think that back in the days we used to think the most evil thing a company could do was charging money for their software. Today we even praise some companies because they are "less evil" and they actually charge money, instead of giving the service for free and mining our data (e.g. Fast Mail vs Gmail; or Kagi vs Google). | | |
