Hadn't thought about that additional attack vector those proxies are enabling. In addition to "internet access from residental connection" privileges, the attacker also gets access to loopback on the device that does the pro

More "Star Trek computer" and less C3PO would be a start. We all know the "voice" of log output of normal, non-LLM computer programs. Usually, the statements are in passive voice and tersely describe what the program is

Ok, good to know that. I'm surprised selfhosted services would be allowed in that list. Isn't there the "risk" that you can then extract the raw key from your selfhosted instance?

"Ghost cut" is basically how Excel has always done cut&paste, I think maybe without involving the clipboard at all. Looks like there are two different expectations of cut&paste. Most software seem to treat it as simply a c
