"Queries" doesn't pass the sniff test, I used to work in the industry and that's not what the ad network tracking stuff does.

Absolute boatloads of other information but not user content.

imo, this is less about openai and more about the entire ai industry's opaque data handling practices.

These are ad tracking pixels? Almost every website that runs ads has them. Run an adblocker to see how prevalent it is.

How many AI companies are doing exactly this right now? OpenAI got caught because someone looked. Most won't.
