Do I understand it correctly that they can now use everything I read or type in the browser as they please, including for AI training?

Considering that I do most of my work in webbased enail, issue tracker and other internal tools, this sounds like a direct violation of my NDA.

Have you requested that?


Presumably they mean that if you want to post a comment to hacker news you give them the right to do what you want them to do.

I'm presuming there's no catchy legal gotcha around the "doing as you request" clause.


That's nice and all, but most people are worried about the other "rights" this would grant them and their partners. (What they can vs what they say they will)
