Just curious how the data flow works. Are you sending information to both places, CGenie and OpenAI? Full disclosure, I have never used CGenie. I know you can turn off data collection at OpenAI, can you do the same with them?

The VSC extension is just a conduit to the OpenAI API. You use your own API key. I haven’t dug into the exact data flow, however, so I can’t speak to whether the extension is collecting any or what data itself.
Lmao, OpenAI is the bigger threat here than some random dude who made an extension.
