I'd feel a lot better if "OpenRouter" were open source.
If you don’t like any middle men, just go to one of the providers directly.
Lol hahaha
"Everyone knows in {{BUSINESS_TYPE}} there is no real privacy".
Be it fintech, AI or social media. You give them a free pass with being flippant about companies respecting privacy.
Being flippant about anyone being careless about our privacy is doing us as a society and injustice. We should demand privacy, not laugh at the notion of privacy.

Recently got m3 ultra 512gb studio. LM Studio runs frontier models routinely. Going local is the ONLY way. That's all you can do. "Demanding privacy" is security theater. Act accordingly.
Even better: they send all the data to GoogleTagClassifier, which means now Google had a copy of the sample as well
why imagine? The world already functions exactly like that. Talk on Tg like every chat is summarized every 24hrs and monthly (with cheap LLM and then with strong ones if signals found), and it reports to all kinds of interested intel agencies.
Same for openrouter. everything that leaves your device plaintext = public. Period. No hopes.
We don’t retain any customer prompts or completions by default. As others here mentioned, you can opt-in for a 1% discount. Prompt classification is performed using a zero-data-retention and zero-training service, just like our own.
Even if you pretend that the classifier respect anonymity, if I pay for the inference, I would expect that it would be a closed tube with my privacy respected. If at least it was for "safety" checks, I don't like that but I would almost understand, now it is for them to have "marketing data".
Imagine, and regarding the state of the world it might come soon, that you have whatsapp or telegram that inspect all the messages that you send to give reports like:
- 20% of our users speak about their health issues
- 30% of messages are about annoying coworkers
- 15% are messages comparing dick sizes
