All of which has nothing to do with OpenAI or Anthropic deciding to use your data??? SOC 2 Type II is completely irrelevant.

You've got two companies that basically built their entire business upon stealing people's content, and they've given you a piece of paper saying "trust me bro".

I appreciate your skepticism. At the end of the day we're focused on delivering real value while taking every security precaution we can reasonably take and build new technology at the same time. Eventually as we grow we'll be able to do full self hosting for our customers and perhaps even spin up our own LLMs in our own servers. But until then, we can only do so much.

Welcome to the invalidated EU-US Safe Harbour, the invalidated EU-US Privacy Shield, and the soon-to-be invalidated EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF) and Transatlantic Data Privacy Framework (TADPF).

Digital sovereignty and respect for privacy and local laws are the exception in this domain, not the expectation.

As Max Schrems puts it "Instead of stable legal limitations, the EU agreed to executive promises that can be overturned in seconds. Now that the first Trump waves hit this deal, it quickly throws many EU businesses into a legal limbo."

If Nation States can't manage to keep their grubby hands off your data, private US Companies obliged to co-operate with Intelligence Apparatus certainly won't be.

You make valid points. At the end of the day we're focused on delivering real value while taking every security precaution we can reasonably take and build new technology at the same time. Eventually as we grow we'll be able to do full self hosting for our customers and perhaps even spin up our own LLMs in our own servers. But until then, we can only do so much.
