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

[ulrich@feddit.org]

No, I haven't.

[dawnglider@lemmy.ml]

Are you running a quantized model or one of the distilled ones?

[halfsalesman@lemm.ee]

This is why you run stuff locally or not at all.

Chinese company uses servers located in China. More news at 11.

[braininabox@lemmy.ml]

Lol, everyone can see that both I and others have refuted your arguments. You pretending you can’t see that only makes you look like a sore loser.

[bokherif@lemmy.world]

Oh yeah and ChatGPT doesn’t

[vfreire85@lemmy.ml]

this. i mean, the session logs for the prompt are kept at least for your user, right?

[davel@lemmy.ml]

It doesn’t have access to all your keystrokes. An app can only harvest the keystrokes typed into it.

Oh my god, that is such stupid detail to get hung up on then. There are actual problems with it like censorship and consequent potential untrustworthiness of the answers and THIS is what they decide is the worst thing.

[warl0k3@lemmy.world]

... Is this a bit? Because, thats some unhinged shit to believe if you're being serious.

Just to be clear here, Putin isn't responsible for all the worlds evils, that's just... dumb. Seriously, I don't know how you could possibly arrive at that conclusion. Hell, he's not even responsible for all the evils in the US. But he's very openly and publicly working with the far right parties here, who are in their turn very open about working with him, and that makes him a very relevant current figure. Not... sure what part of that is a revelation.

This is my total lack of surprise.

The guys at HF (and many others) appear to have a different understanding of Open Source.

You cannot be a serious leftist and pretend to be offended by a little "anti-white" rhetoric.

[petter1@lemm.ee]

Well, this is definitely a valid reason, and I really hope you stay strong and take your country back sooner than later.

I was more thinking about active manipulation and disinformation campaigns. They work by getting as much data from people as possible to find which people need to be targeted how to get the results you want.

[noisefree@lemmy.world]

Maybe. They could also be doing things like paying attention to input cadence and typos/pre-send typo corrections to use as part of a fingerprint associated with the identifying information a user gives them when creating an account so that they can then attempt to detect the user elsewhere on the web whether they are using an identifying account or not.

[critical_thinker@lemm.ee]

Antarctica, clearly.

[conditional_soup@lemm.ee]

Yeah, uh... If you think that American companies aren't doing this same thing and handing your data over to the government without a warrant among other bad uses, I have some bad news for you. This is pretty much par for the course, and I'm pretty sure that we're witnessing a well financed negative media blitz happening to try and keep OpenAI from getting all of its spaghetti spilled. Watch for the government to try and ban deepseek for "national security" reasons soon.

[yogthos@lemmy.ml]

This argument applies to literally every single web app you use.

[alexwiwa@lemmy.ml]

No I’m not surprised at all. This is necessary for any kind of auto save and auto complete. Not happy about my shit being stored in China, but “collects every keystroke” isn’t really news anymore.

If you’re worried about this kind of behavior, don’t use any website with auto save or auto complete, period.
