Im still weary of OpenAI being legally required to retain all of your data even if you delete it [0] . This means everything you expose to this tool will be permanently stored somewhere. Why isn’t this a bigger problem for people?

Even privacy concerns aside… this would be the world’s most catastrophic data leak.

I'm not so sure this is much worse than Chrome. Really in today's world if you're not browsing the web like multiple people are looking over your shoulder you're probably doing it wrong. And most of the steps people do to mitigate privacy violations (TOR, pihole, VPNs, etc.) probably make any signal you do put out more scrutinized. The one solution I do like is the iCloud private relay which I hope some reputable VPN vendors pick up soon.

My general understanding is that they browser fingerprint you. And then if that fingerprint is ever detected on a site that also knows your pii they have you. Is that the gist of it or are there more shenanigans I'm unaware of

By default, I believe that anything you put in the "omnibox" is sent to Google - even if you don't press enter. So, if you use it as a clipboard of sorts and paste a secret / token / key, it should be considered compromised.

You can validate this by going to chrome://omnibox
