I've disabled the checkbox many months ago and it's still disabled today. EU citizen, not sure if that's relevant.

For me, "Improve the model for everyone" was "On", although I disabled a similar-sounding checkbox in the past (Germany).

  • Is there a description of what "Improve the model for everyone" actually means or is it just a straight up *Dark* pattern?

    • It's pretty clear once you click on it:

Same for me, I disabled it like 2 years ago and it is still not enabled. Location: Norway (which is for data control purposes = EU)

Edit: I have a pro subscription now but it has also been on a free tier level for perhaps 1.5 of these years.

Same here, I just happened to check yesterday and hadn’t checked for at least half a year.

What makes you think the company that pirated a big portion of all copyrighted work will care about this checkbox?

At best they’ll “anonymize” the data before adding it to the corpus.
