If Figma takes a little inspiration from Adobe (they were almost acquired at one point after all) they'll realize they can change their TOS at any time for any reason with impunity. Such statements are at best dubious and at worst complete unprovable bullshit.

The only way to be sure your data stays yours is local models running on your machines.

This applies to all non self hosted software and even much self hosted software that radios out invasive telemetry. The difference between offering an AI feature or not offering it is time, but collecting your data as training for that eventually inevitable AI feature is happening now, everywhere, all the time. The only defense is retreat into a SKIF or depend on ToS, and as you point out ToS is a very weak defense. Things are moving considerably faster than law, regulation, judicial review, and establishment of a compliance framework can possibly accommodate.

Welcome to the future you were promised! It’s already too late.
