I've been running it locally using ollama, works completely offline, no keystroke data for anyone!
Yeah I scan logs and so far nothing... I still don't trust them but I can't tell shit either
Just use little snitch, open snitch or simple wall depending on your operating system and block the outbound connection if one ever occurs
