DeepSeek collects keystroke data and more, storing it in Chinese servers

You make a compelling argument.

[billwashere@lemmy.world]

If I’m typing into the app, is that really collecting keystrokes?

[yogthos@lemmy.ml]

about as compelling as the argument you made

I feel like Meta could do a ton more damage with my information than Tencent

Time to make up a conspiracy about key leading figures, and laugh as they disappear each other.

Oh little snitch was just what I used when macOS was my main operating system. When I switched to windows I started using simple wall and I just recently was poking around for a Linux solution and I found open snitch

Yeah whatever, everyone collects it now. Since it gets stored by a fascist state either way, who gives a fuck?

[grumpyduckling@sh.itjust.works]

Your devices keyboard app has been collecting all of your keystrokes.

Does TikTok access my wifi network?

That so edgy, man. I bet all the girls in your high school think you're the raddest.

[grapho@lemmy.ml]

With the caveat that we have tons of actual evidence for the US equivalent, whereas the claims that China does those things are usually "We absolutely swear they do bro" from the people who swore Hamas was raping babies or whatever.

[grapho@lemmy.ml]

’d love to be wrong.

No you wouldn't. If you were, you'd have listen to the many people that probably have corrected you on all those State Department talking points

[grapho@lemmy.ml]

For starters, that the Uyghur genocide is yet another piece of atrocity propaganda from the US. We know what a genocide looks like and how it's impossible to hide in the modern world, as Gaza showed.

Blurry satellite pictures of buildings and a German fascist swearing it for ten pages (financed by Raytheon and Lockheed-Martin) isn't proof.

[grapho@lemmy.ml]

So democratic activists in Taiwan have extensive networks in the US?

I mean, you said it.

[ulrich@feddit.org]

If you think any of those are remotely the same, you're simply delusional.

[grapho@lemmy.ml]

As a chauvinist

And why is that an issue? It's typing data sent to a language model. What nefarious data might they be looking for? Learning to imitate humans? Fingerprinting? Making the best virtual keyboard asmr?

[ulrich@feddit.org]

That's never happened. And being that you haven't either, I think it's a fair guess that it won't anytime soon.

[grapho@lemmy.ml]

Anti terrorism is good, actually. I don't support people kicking seniors for speaking mandarin to try to bully a government into not prosecuting murderers in the mainland, which was the reason the protests happened (that and Washington money)

Billions of folk's keyboards are connected to the internet and the vast majority of them have no idea. It's absolutely ludicrous that we've gotten to this stage with surveillance capitalism. Internet-connected keyboards are malware, plain and simple.
