You see if you don't meddle with my terminal data in the first place I would feel much better that I am in control of my data, and not reliant on. 3rd parties to accidentally drop guard and leak my data out.
It doesn't "meddle or leak" your terminal data. OpenAI integration only kicks in after explicit user action. Looking at the screenshots, it appears to only become active for the current terminal pane.

Also, iTerm is developed by an actual respect-worthy person who actually cares about this kind of stuff, not by an "AI overlord." It's unfortunate that you instantly chose to make baseless spyware accusations in public forums instead of supporting him for creating the software that you've relied on.
