I am curious, do you block MS Edge? It has a grammar check for all input boxes that sends data to MS servers to check. Similar to what Grammarly does.
MS also "helpfully" asks you if you want to use that enhanced grammar check in MS Word(as far as I have seen, might be there in other office products too). I cannot imagine sending all my documents to MS. But I am not sure most users will realize what is happening.
All these companies offer helpful services but are hovering up data and no one knows the consequences yet. It feels like ChatGPT is just one symptom of a bigger problem.
- lazyasciiart 4y agoYou can disable the feature entirely in group policies, I imagine organizations with a decent IT org will do so before deploying the update.
- cuuupid 4y agoWe don't but the grammar check is disabled. In general anything cloud-based services are vetted before being allowed. I think MS Edge is getting even worse about this, with the big fucking Bing icon in the corner and making it impossibly hard to get rid of it.
