I’ve been trying to figure out how to use AI in a meaningful way. There’s a number of cases where it makes sense, but the way companies like to scrape and collect data is abusive in my opinion.
I am a believer that if it’s free, you’re the product, so I would expect any AI that has a semblance of privacy included would be a paid service.
As I investigate new tools and services, I spend/waste a lot of time reading privacy policies and TOS. What’s your take on something like privacy-protector.cc? Has anyone used this, it seems straight forward, and while they do collect some identifying information, it seems reasonable.
Their privacy policy which is one of the cleanest, most straight-forward, I’ve seen in a while.

Is it not open source? That’s a tenet for posting in the community.
I certainly hope my post didn’t come off as promotion of this app. My intention was to discuss viability. Decent proprietary software does exist even though that’s a bit of an oxymoron.
It’s fine then. I’d recommend to steer against it since it’s obscure (also can’t access the site for some reason) and not FOSS. You’re better off using a local LLM
Sounds good. Been playing with some local llms
Thanks!
I can’t access the site. But I can just go ahead and summarize every privacy policy ever right here:
We collect all the data we possibly can and sell it to whoever will pay us money for it. If you disagree, you may not use our service.
