“I should check out Gemini, though its just the newest way for goog scum to snag more data for your dossier / profile.”
Yep, that is a fact... Just figure on the purpose of all IA is exactly that.

Perplexity is independent AI so a little better. I sign in with my email...not via google account. Grok3 is under X and Elon so less harm there. Though X does deal with data brokers.
Perplexity says this about Perplexity and data brokers>>>>
Perplexity does not have direct relationships with traditional data brokers in the sense of selling or reselling user data for marketing or profiling purposes. However, its data practices involve some sharing with third parties and business partners, which is important to clarify:
Data Sharing and Partnerships
Business Data Integrators: Perplexity partners with data providers like FactSet and Crunchbase to enrich its platform with high-quality, structured business and financial data. These partnerships are focused on delivering proprietary company and financial datasets to users, particularly those on Enterprise Pro plans, rather than selling user data to external brokers.
Third-Party Access: Perplexity does share some user data (such as mobile identifiers, hashed email addresses, and cookie identifiers) with advertisers and business partners. This is primarily for ad targeting and improving service delivery, and not for the purpose of external data brokering.
No AI Training by Third Parties: Perplexity’s agreements with third-party AI model providers (like OpenAI and Anthropic) explicitly prohibit those providers from using Perplexity user data to train their own models.
Privacy Policy and User Rights
Data Collection: Perplexity collects personal information (e.g., name, email), usage data (e.g., IP address, browser type), and uses cookies and tracking technologies.
Data Transfers: For users in the EU and UK, Perplexity complies with GDPR and the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework, ensuring that any cross-border data transfers use appropriate safeguards.
User Control: Users have rights to access, correct, or request deletion of their personal data, and data is retained only as long as necessary for service delivery.
Yeah. Copilot addresses me by name - real folksy.
