MiniMax Offers 1.7B Tokens for $20, Raising Third-Party Privacy Concerns
dark_bits · reddit · 2026-08-02
MiniMax recently launched a highly cost-effective API subscription: offering approximately 1.7 billion tokens per month for just $20. After integrating it with the open-source tool OpenCode, a developer raised privacy concerns, asking whether middleware tools like OpenCode intercept or access user prompts and data when calling external models. The community discussion covers the difficulty of code auditing for open-source tools and explores safer alternatives like Nanocoder.
