Yes, that's because it is a leak - just like most other cloud services by the way. Step by step, piece by piece, bit by bit the concept of 'privacy' has been hollowed out by pushing 'cloud' services (where 'cloud' stands for "someone else's computer") into just about all aspects of personal data-manipulation. This was one of the tenets of the 'Great Reset' push by the World Economic Forum which sought to capitalise (no pun intended) on the SARS2 pandemic to reshuffle the world into their vision of a new society. One of the better known publications which espoused this idea was written by Danish member of parliament Ida Auken under the title Welcome to 2030. I own nothing, have no privacy, and life has never been better. Here is is on the WEF site:

If you follow that link you'll be told they're Sorry, but we can’t find the page you were looking for. Fortunately there is the Internet Archive to save the day:

There is a sentence at the end of the article which refers to the death of privacy in the service of this brave, new world: Once in awhile I get annoyed about the fact that I have no real privacy. No where I can go and not be registered. I know that, somewhere, everything I do, think and dream of is recorded. I just hope that nobody will use it against me.

Since these ideas did not go down that well - which is an understatement - the lede was buried and later still removed from the site but the push towards giving up personal privacy has in no way diminished. Think of that the next time you consider using one of these 'handy' services, also the next time you log in to your cloud account. How much of your personal life did you entrust to that cloud vendor? Maybe the time has come to take it back?

I know what you mean. But I can't run the transcription and llm locally on the user's machine. So it has to be in the cloud. And most video calls and transcription/translation services are in the cloud anyway. So yes, you have to trust that the backend is secure, and it is.

Can't reproduce it right now, but I'll look into it. Normally, it would show a button to sign in with google.
