It's still an exceptionally poor privacy policy compared to pre-LLM online services.

Compare with the Google Docs privacy policy, for example:

https://support.google.com/docs/answer/10381817?hl=en

> Google respects your privacy. We access your private content only when we have your permission or are required to by law.

I think it is reasonable to expect the same from LLM API providers. The fact that they all currently do mass surveillance on users is bad.

That can be very vague. does TOS gave them the permission? Does law can eb interpreted to require them to check for CSAM and pirated material? What about access by Iran or North Korea agents? If you are pushing things to cloud, these questions will be asked.

Anyone who cares will heed this language and not use them in the first place. For everyone else, Google's reputation as a "secure" place to host your proprietary files, docs, and emails will be flushed away if they cooperate with (foreign, mostly) law enforcement or have such a glaring security vulnerability that allows an org's files to leak from Google servers.
