What even is this answer? Full of really really far fetched assumptions.

Not everyone uses the same company email with Claude and on github, not everyone commits to public repos, not everyone uses the same email on LinkedIn.

This is an example of a really weird gymnastics.

Me, for example, I'm using my private email with Claude, different email on LinkedIn, different email and unconnected username on a new github account I created for this job, and I don't even use it for public repos.

How come you get to decide that the fact someone puts their real email in commits and knowingly shares it with everyone is the same as Anthropic pulling a private, personal email and real name they had no consent to share - and spray it all over the Net?

Anthropic didn’t pull it. You ran the agent on your computer, you gave it unfettered access to that information, you let it send requests that you didn’t review. Honestly why would you be surprised that something like this could and would happen?

Many assumptions and "responses" that don't even tangentially touch my comment.

Do you want to try again?

Oh got it, not affected by this at all and just whining for no reason. Check, noted, good work.

I'll try once again: your fallacies have been noticed and that alone would be sufficient to disengage.

But there's also the thing you're either replying to the wrong person (your comment is not relevant in the context of mine), or you just wanted to make an irrelevant statement in what case why would you demand anyone engaging with it?

I hope it was simpler.

I’ll try again. You’re whinging and cringing about something that apparently doesn’t affect you. Just dog piling onto the circle jerk. Peak HNery. Love to see it. Never quit. You’re the beating heart of this website.

You just can't stop developing your delusions. You pulled your assumptions straight out of your ass and very pleased with the shape and the smell started talking about them.

Nothing you've.... produced is in any way relevant to what I'm saying, yet you insist it is.

Get your meds checked, seriously, whatever you're having is not working.
