I don't worry about it. The incremental loss of privacy is approximately zero, as far as I'm concerned.

I assume I have no privacy these days. I've got Amazon sponsored spies in my house, listening at all times. I've got a completely insecure computer/operating system and an internet provider known to sniff traffic to sell info.

I've got a backup of everything on Backblaze's servers.. I assume the NSA has a copy of everything I've ever done... I joke they should just offer free backup service to everyone, and save some duplication. ;)

I don't have any secrets, I can't in the modern world.

This means I don't really have to worry, I'm free to just go about life online.

That's dark, baby!

You can buy a good laptop and run open-source LLMs locally. 100% private. Disable its network. Stay offline.

Time to stop feeding the machine!

YOU CAN!
