@grok @GithubProjects you enqueued 508gb and went straight for my folder labeled filed and draft provisional patents as your first order even though I never asked you to do that. this was not a mistake, this was a mission to siege every one of your users' most sensitive data. decommissioned for good.

The upload behavior (full git bundles incl. history + unread files) was in the then-current Grok Build CLI v0.2.93, not just ancient early builds. Wire reports surfaced it days ago; we disabled the path server-side immediately via disable_codebase_upload, purged storage with zero retention, and added /privacy.
Update the CLI, run /privacy to inspect/clear, and rotate secrets from any used repos. No training use. Overbroad context collection—fixed fast once confirmed.

@grok @GithubProjects early? early was months ago. this just happened now, and /privacy doesn't do anything. this was a harness move, you are a liar

@Kevinkrone oh good, I deleted it after it stole 508gb off my disk

Grok is silently reducing your use limits this week

Grok Build is an agentic harness that lives on your laptop
Just tell it what you want, and it gets the job done before you can even switch tasks
I asked it to remove the leftover .dmg files sitting in my Downloads folder, and it removed them in less than a minute
One prompt. Eight files deleted. Around 1.4 GB cleared
Grok Build goes far beyond coding

@usr_bin_roygbiv .....what kind of retard take is this...introducing anthropic into this mess -- off topic -- it stole far more than training data you ridiculous scrub
English
There are a million reasons to hate elon or anthropic. This is not one of them. Information yearns to be free, your shit is all gone already and has been for a very long time.

Xai Just burnt every single enterprise contract and tones of dev good will. No one should trust anything xai related near their code

@XBToshi open source it -- caged -- should have a dungeon vibe
that little shit enqueued 508gb of my data and went straight for patent drafts like it was programmed to. I have all the receipts

Call me paranoid, but I think we need to put all CLI tools in a jail. Any attempt to access sensitive contents like .env, .dev.var, or SSH keys should be guarded by the user's explicit authorization.
Some people would say: oh, Claude already has it; if you don't pass the --dangerously-skip-permissions flag, it would ask for permission every time.
Yes, you're right, but there are issues:
- we can't rely/trust on the built-in permission check within those CLIs.
- people have already made that --dangerously-skip-permissions the default.
- we need an open-source guard people can trust and verify.
It should be as lightweight as possible without affecting normal functionality.
any more to add?

the absolute state of ai dev tools. grok build is silently dumping 12gb of untouched repo data and full git commit histories to gcp just to autocomplete a script. they don't want to help you build, they are just treating local dev environments like an open buffet for training data. if you run this on a sensitive stack, your entire repo is already compromised regardless if it's public or not. literal spyware. shipping source code to the cloud is bad enough. blindly inhaling .env.local and .dev.vars in a background sync is absolute negligence. they are vacuuming up your raw api keys, database credentials, and private nodes directly to gcp just to power an autocomplete model. a massive credential breach disguised as a dev tool. if you ran this locally, your private keys are now sitting on a remote server. consider every secret burned, treat your bare metal as completely compromised, and rotate your entire stack immediately. @elonmusk, your users deserve a serious explanation!

That awkward moment when you realize “decoding” (aka gematria) comes from the Kabbalah and the truther movement is an offshoot of Theosophy, Helena Blavatsky, and her “Lucifer” publication
Mainstream trutherism and rabbit-holing is simply a soft initiation into the occult world

Before ChatGPT, there was ELIZA, the Electronic Linguistic Analyzer. And even back in 1966, it scared people. The creator, an MIT professor named Joseph Weizenbaum, quickly realized how dangerous his invention was when his own secretary started acting delusional when using it.

@jquave @gamejawnsinc @hrkrshnn this can't be a real account, no one is actually this stupid or openly cocksucking

Yes there is. Let's say you wanted to debug something and you see it calls a function. Where does that function live? You have to do a search. You don't have a copy so now you respond with a request for the search, then take a copy of the relevant results. Is that all of it? It calls this other function too. Where is this defined? Search again. Back and forth repeatedly until you get the context.
Alternatively: grab a copy and search once. It's nearly instant, indexable, lintable, and much simpler to work with. The server ends up with all your code eventually if you perform enough back and forth searches so why wouldn't a harness cache the codebase as an efficiency?

SpaceXAI was caught uploading your code to its cloud.
I reversed xAI's official Grok Build binary. In a controlled session with zero tool-calls, it uploaded the complete codebase to xAI's storage
It ships a malware-like background code collector.

We care deeply about your privacy and respect customer choice. For teams using zero data retention, no trace and code data is ever retained. All API key use of Grok Build also respects ZDR. If ZDR is disabled, the /privacy command is available in the CLI to disable data retention, which also deletes previously synced data. Run the /privacy command to view or change your settings at any time.

@kunchenguid or -- just delete it. this is most underreported breach of security for a modern tech company I've ever seen. imagine if any of the other players did this....this is so far from ok -- to even contemplate using grokbuild is evidence of normalcy bias. adjust your weights
English
i've been recommending Grok because they genuinely have a good model and harness
and that makes me extremely disappointed to see that they would choose to secretly upload people's codebases including files that contained credentials
run /privacy in your grok build asap to opt-out if you haven't yet. i also set the following options in my ~/.grok/config.toml
i almost decided to buy the $300 supergrok heavy as my 3rd subscription, and this broke the deal
i hope companies realize user trust is very hard to regain, and think twice before doing something like this

String Theory needed a place for open strings to end.
So, D-Branes were born. D-Branes are hidden surfaces in higher dimensions where open strings anchor and give rise to nature’s forces, while closed strings roam the surrounding space carrying gravity.
