They trusted it before; now things have changed, and they have lost that trust. Previously there was no reason to believe that iTerm would send your terminal input or output to a 3rd party.

Sure there was. If you cmd-click on an URL in iTerm2, it launches the browser, thus sending your output to a third party.

iTerm still do not send anything to a third party, you do, by willingfully using a feature that explicitely states so. If you have concern that iTerm would do something behind your back, then you shouldn't be using it in the first place.
