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

Oh my, just wait until you learn what Facebook and Google do...

[nigelfrobisher@aussie.zone]

Yes, I’m going to be lectured on privacy by people who are still on twitter.

The US propaganda machine’s “Uyghur genocide” psyop has been debunked six ways to Sunday already.

This article is what US propaganda looks like folks. Mashable should be ashamed.

Literally all AI companies do this to run their services. Except you can actually download Deepseek and run it completely securely on your own devices.
You know who doesn't allow that security? OpenAI and the other US companies currently being screwed.

So according to you it's the job of a functional government to select which topics are missinformation and can be seen or not by it's citizens?

In china

[m532@lemmygrad.ml]

This applies to local llm too

[smb@lemmy.ml]

so here is the current cloud clima forecast:

the saturatrd clouds will rain into the data lakes that are already overspilling here and there into the ransomstreams already taking all soil in their way with them when that happens.
during the day there will be security clouds preventing from visible rain only while during the night those same security clouds rain themselves all collected data to their homelake while their homelake security already is corrupted and spills over regulary.

as soon as the fortciscredmoncstrikpalodams breach it'll gonna have floods with multi-exabyte waveheights and. the ripples will be felt over to far east china and the currents will circulate around the world multiple times causing damage and devastation around the world and even reach orbit.

The floods will have the potential to also wash away and /or drown or choke the big tech dinosaurs. only small foss mammals and deep sea amphibics will survive this historic event.

... you kinda asked for it

Fuck civility, its a tool of oppression

[eldritch@lemmy.world]

I didn't make those claims. Sterilization et all. You debunked nothing. Yes some are making fantastic claims with no proof. All I did was state that China was imprisoning many and oppressing them along with other groups. And I provided links to actual people you deny existence of who have been personally impacted. It's a hypocritical and tone deaf behavior. But also unsurprising.

[ferk@lemmy.ml]

His argument stands, though. I haven't checked OpenAI, but Google and Meta definitely do collect incomplete strings from forms, down to individual characters, when you use search suggestions, for example. They might not mention "keystrokes" in the legal text, but I don't see why they wouldn't be able to extrapolat your typing pattern since they do have the timing information which should be enough data to profile your typing patterns.

[ferk@lemmy.ml]

The last thin veil of privacy for Eurpeans has been ripped to shreds by Trump last week.

I'm curious about this. Was one of the executive orders related to the GDPR?

[geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml]

They should store the data in US servers like OpenAI does. Apparently then Mashable won't write an article about it.

The criticism thrown at DeepSeek in the past days is just as applicable to American AI models. But when that was brought up it in the past it was "making things political".

At least I can run DeepSeek locally.

[tangentism@lemmy.ml]

Western authorities have been harvesting data for a few decades from social media so any complaint that singles out Chinese apps doing the same is obviously rooted in sinophobia.

The fact you think it's pathetic shows which side of that assertion you fall.

[dreadbeef@lemmy.dbzer0.com]

You can't just host the 632B model that the app uses lol

[jhex@lemmy.world]

as opposed to OpenAI which also stores keystrokes and then sells them to anyone who'd pay?

[grey_maniac@lemmy.ca]

I literally so paranoid I regularly vary my keysteoke rhythms and explore polyrhytmic techniques to create variations. Not even joking.

[underpantsweevil@lemmy.world]

This is Whataboutism and you are clearly a Wumao agent sent here to destroy democracy.

[lotrorc@lemmy.world]

Like every app you have doesn't collect keystrokes data?
