It seems #DeepSeek left their analytics exposed to the public web — apparently including users' prompts, which may of course contain all sorts of sensitive data. This story will reignite the concerns people already had about the use of public #AI models, given the level of trust that is required in that relationship.
I can confirm that the app remains unavailable for download in the Italian App Store, following questions from the national #privacy regulator.
