If so, I’ll retract my statement

They were going to kill Edward Snowden for leaking the PRISM program.
I blame it on the herb
Previous Presidents went through the FISA court for authorizations to get to the data. Trump has a bone to pick with FISA so we already know he's not waiting for any permission.
It's so cute to believe political power and capitalists are not working hands in hands (it's world wide shit)
- DeepSeek
- TikTok
- Temu
- WeChat
- Alipay
- Tencent
Sorry, Amazon, Walmart and Target abandoning DEI means TEMU wins
BTW... Not a fan of the others dropping DEI either. I'll spend my $ locally and with Costco for the time being.
But unless you're pasting government secrets or proprietary chip blueprints into their interface, it doesn't really matter. It's also no different than what Meta collects.
Later, when we >
Is Meta or Open-AI going to be releasing their flagship models as open-source? Didn't think so.
At least the Chinese won't sell the data to the highest bidder.
Most people instinctively clicks the "Accept All" button on those GDPR forms. That's the sad truth.
I'm trying to do the best that I can by sharing the knowledge I've accumulated along the way
The terms and conditions for moof these apps should frighten everyone
Schools should be teaching how to review the terms and conditions these apps require to get a “free “ download
Propaganda ship has sailed for most people here. No one is protecting anything but their agenda and bottom line.
Most platforms benefit corruption but we have to use them to compete and engage.
No one needs a lecture.

And if that’s the case, why would they ever release the model to the public?
Unless they’re doing it in a more…rebellious vigilante way.
“I stole this and now I give it to the public!”
At the same time, how do they even differentiate that?? If they both used the same internet to train both LLM’s, you’re gonna get similar results.

They all are a bunch of crooks, here to steal anything they can get their hands on..
OpenAI used all data available to them from the start. I am sure they will continue that, just like other AI comps.
That being said. Let's not send our info direct to China.
And if they wished so, they could simply buy all the necessary from US oligarchs.
Now amp it up.

You can run it locally, offline as well. That way there's no trackers or data collection. It's open source, feel free to dig the local code for *scary Chinese coding*
The LLM is completely free and open source and you can run it offline: no trackers, ads, or censorship.
The app uses the LLM with data harvesting to make money back (bad).
You claim other people are idiots but everyone, including you, is acting like DeepSeek is just one thing. They're not.
Many are, sure. But that doesn’t mean we should all just bend over and take it…”bro”
You are being disingenuous to deny it.
When somebody/ something shows you who/what they/it are/is- BELIEVE THEM/IT !!!
"BELIEVE THEM"
Your product information can be stolen. That's different than an AI knowing where you like to eat.
When users sign up to Meta, they grant them "a license to use their content including the right to: host, use, distribute, modify, run, copy, publicly perform, display, translate, and create derivative works-of-content..."
and do so without notifying or paying the user.

Even if neither would face justice, it's easier to court martial Zuckerberg than it is Xi the Pooh.
+100 social credit?
Yea I don’t trust the deepseek app but you can download the model locally and even the small parameter models are pretty great
line up any dollars 2 chase & doubtful they aren't losing ground

Secondly, if using it online, who cares? Cghina is more trustworthy with your data than Zuck or Musk
A good movie documentary to watch.

WHY isn't THIS Chinese app considered a national security risk, since it has access to EVERYTHING on your phone.
WTF???????
I place my clouds in china for protection. I'm a former NSA contractor.
But you keep doing your idiocracy is guess
I would trust them over twitter. Meta.
I could care less if they have my “data” from. A burner account
They made this LLM for strategic reasons: they want to show that China is not behind in the AI race, even though they’re being boycotted.
This fearmongering over china specifically is just weird when the problem is far more broad.
I do not feel safer with the NSA having my data vs. other countries' security agencies.
China is actively doing less harm to me than my own country. It's also not like they don't already have the information as I'm sure the information is traded globally anyways. Fuck it.
You wouldn't believe the amount of audio and video they have.
Take from that what you will
Got it.
It’s like going outside in NYC. You’re on camera. No idea who you’re being seen by. What they’re doing with the images. Just slay with style like a star and put on your own show.
The Covid era made so many less freaked about who has their Data.
Chances are though that it won't make any difference as that's not how they work.
If you're nervous of 'them' listening, turn your phone off. But it's unlikely to make any difference.
Greedy mofos!

If anything the mistake shows that Chatgpt does not know as much about people as you might think, and that they can't steal data as easy as people might think.
Do I trust that Meta or Twitter deleted my shit? No, absolutely not. They kept some heuristic, so aggregate. I'm not gone without a trace.
So let's not hold China's products to a higher standard.
As you say Meta and X can keep *traces* of your data. Deepseek can keep *every single detail*.
So, anyone worried about Meta and X should be even more worried about Deepseek.
The propaganda machine is out of order and no one has the ability to fix it.
Priorities.
If you use an online service you create data on its servers
If you aren't paying then they are selling it

X BTW has also said to keep all your convo's to train Grok.
So I really, really fail to see the difference.
US Based companies are no better (or worse) than China based ones.
It has lost that a LONG time ago.
As for the government - both governments have full access to the data if/when they ask for it.
And it's rich coming from the country that uses TEMU the most
letting Xi have all that data and who knows what back door accesses seems far more potentially problematic to me.
I can envision several scenarios that could be quite disastrous if they get into the devices of most Americans.
And though we might have it on paper we don't have the courts to enforce.
The broligarchy wants to undermine and exploit where as (if I’m correct about Xi’s agenda) if/when Xi gets enough influence & access to a majority of Americans that could lead to complete collapse like or worse than ussr’s.
When I “deleted” my FB account I requested a copy of all of my data which takes them 15 days to prepare. If everyone did this at the same time, it would put the fuck to Zuck.
The NSA,GCHQ and the 5 eyes have been wholesale stealing data from all the countries in the world.
The NSA/NRO is proud of it.
Facebook partnered with Cambridge Analytica, to subvert elections around the world.
All of our data continues to be captured by anybody.
And nothing was done to protect my data or yours over DECADES by foreign governments.
Facebook, a US corporation freely offered Cambridge Analytica THEIR data collected from everywhere on the planet. To use it to topple governments & hand pick governments.
Corporations are capitalist anarchistic greed organisms, or sorry “people”.
Private companies are turning into countries due to their influence and so we need to regulate them and be sure they have a social purpose.
Corporations have been selling my data since the first store discount card was handed to me. You think Zuckercuck hasn’t already sold my data to anyone with money. Whatever.
Unless you are off the grid, using a burner phone, or never connect to the internet, your data is out there.
Be smart. Be careful.
