With all due respect (not that I feel like much is due after that response) I am not really sure you know what I am talking about. I'm talking about inference providers, like inference.net, Fireworks, Coreweave, Digital Ocean, etc, to use DeepSeek 4.1 Flash. They didn't create the model, they just are charging you to run inference tasks. That is a different story.

DeepSeek themselves are honest about the fact that they train on inputs by default. You won't hit DeepSeek if you use OpenRouter with ZDR enabled.
