Why is Grammarly keeping track of the urls you visit when it has nothing to do with checking your grammar?
All to improve the service, of course. You know, what they say in the privacy policy.

How do they know what text is on 16B web pages? Presumably they have a web crawler of some sort.
Can confirm. Caught one of their bots on my site and called them out about it on Twitter.
They did not respond.
The page linked doesn't contain the text.
That alone doesn't indicate they collected the 16 billion documents themselves, of course.
I think it’s fine if you use the website with information you don’t mind sharing but their extensions are reading everything you write.
