Or simply switch to a competitor. Assuming this is not just a bug, why would one stand for such disrespectful and sneaky behavior?
FWIW, I have not seen this happen for me.
what competitor?
the x20 Max plan for Claude gives you way lover limits.
Well, it’s a tradeoff. What do you prefer? To go with the service provider known to be shady but gives you lots of free stuff or the one that might be less shady and gives you less free stuff?
Anthropic is shady too my guy. Claude Code will frequently re-ask you to turn on data sharing even after you've said no, it's dark patterned like a task approval, and once you turn it on it's harder to turn off than OAI makes it.

> lover limits.
lovers should never be limited!
hahah :) sorry, typo... in hungarian both v and w are the same sound spoken so if I don't concentrate, easy to mix up.
Can't believe people are advocating free love in 2026
Bedrock is an option. Multiple platforms with solid data sovereignty.
If you don't want them slurping your data, you're gonna have to pay more.
Same as it ever was.
And don't switch to Misanthropic lol. They are even worst...
Has Anthropic been found re-enabling that checkbox? I cannot find anything on that topic

Reminds me the days people would write Micro$oft (usually in Linux vs Windows discourse).
It's funny to think that back in the days we used to think the most evil thing a company could do was charging money for their software. Today we even praise some companies because they are "less evil" and they actually charge money, instead of giving the service for free and mining our data (e.g. Fast Mail vs Gmail; or Kagi vs Google).

Good point, but "Sudden Human Extinction" would be too long a name.
It's a fitting name.
