I figure (hope) buying from DeepSeek directly benefits them the most so they can release even more improvements and open-weight models.
Plus only one country has threatened to annex mine and it wasn't China.
It surely does. Official DeepSeek provider logs and trains off your data.
China has annexed (or it claims so) several countries already, so it sounds like you're only concerned with yourself - probably not what you wanted to achieve.
(But I'd concede that in the field of genocide China doesn't come up as bad)
Assuming canadian or dane, but maybe there are other places he’s threatened. There are canadian inference providers running deepseek, and definitely eu ones idk about ones based in denmark.
The economic sovereignty of any nation, but especially smaller ones like canada and denmark, is harmed by sending our money out of the country when there are options available in country.
