Just opened Claude app on Mac and saw a popup asking me if it's ok to train on my chats. It's on by default. Unchecked it.

I think Claude saw that OpenAI was reaping too much benefit from this so they decided to do it too.

I used to not care about this stuff but with the way this administration is going about things, I suddenly care very much about it.

Trusting companies more than the government always feels strange. It's something I can't grasp.

I 90% agree with you, though Apple did stand up to the FBI some years ago. The US gov't at least is much more restricted on what data it can collect and act on due to the 4th Amendment among other laws, and as another commenter said Apple can't blackbag me to El Salvador.

Apple is an exception, and even that is debatable because of the unencrypted backups they store.

On the other hand, what Apple did is a tangible thing and is a result.

This gives them better optics for now, but there is no law says that they can't change.

Their business model is being an "accessible luxury brand with the privacy guarantee of Switzerland as the laws allow". So, as another argument, they have to do this.
