Entering an API key doesn't immediately cause iTerm to start send data to OpenAI. That's a straight up lie started by people who actually tested the feature and posted their findings on the GitLab thread [1][2] about it.
OpenAI integration is activated after you write a question to be sent to the AI [3]. It takes many clicking and typing to get to that point and can't possibly happen by accident.
It's one thing to not like a feature. But to behave in the way people behaved is not merely ridiculous, it's wrong and horrifying. People came to the issue tracker from Mastodon looking to start a fight that was uncalled for, threw insults and lies, and fantasized about physically harming the dev [4]. When all they could've done to avoid the feature was to simply do nothing.
