    A user questions the privacy boundaries in an Anthropic report

    The user argues that many examples stretch the threshold for “safety” and questions the practice of providers scanning users’ activity and dissecting it publicly.

    TLDR

    Commenting on an Anthropic report, a user argues that its safety justifications are stretched to allow overly broad surveillance. They question whether access to private material entitles a provider to discuss it publicly. To illustrate the concern, they imagine Dropbox or S3 publishing someone’s funeral-preparation documents, or GitHub treating private repositories as fair game because their owner is “politically motivated.” These are hypothetical comparisons, not claims that those services did so.

    @parsecranberryI'm conflicted about that Anthropic report. On one hand: what a great honeypot and dumb bees (I'm one of them for sure). On the other hand: many of these are VERY stretched to fit "safety" threshold allowing basically any surveillance. How is that so normalized for a provider to scan everything their users do and than dissect it in public? Imagine Dropbox or S3 starting to publish someone's funeral preparation docs just because they can see them in their system? Or Github deciding that your private repos are fair play because you are a "politically motivated person".
