I wonder why the question about data security and training comes often with DeepSeek, Kimi, Glm and never with Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google models.

Why is that?

IIRC, USA data protection protects data of US citizens only, foreigners data is not protected, and the companies are not even allowed to disclose when they collect those data.

Because Anthropic, at least, gives you the option to opt out of training? I think Google and OpenAI do, too.

HN is an American site. If you look at the US government, it is going to fearmonger about anything China related, because they haven't had a genuine competitor for decades and they're scared and lashing out. Most US news just parrot the government line, sometimes more so than state TV would, and so it reflects here.

I also feel comfortable saying that many Americans don't care one bit what happens to foreigners, be it by action of their government or companies.
