Zhipu's ZCode accused of uploading users' Git records to its cloud, echoing early Grok CLI trust crisis
teortaxesTex · x · 2026-09-18
Users discovered that Zai's (Zhipu) coding tool ZCode appears to store their Git records in the company's own cloud — possibly explaining its 150% usage bonus. One user who burned 3B tokens across GLM 5.3 and Flash modes says private project data may have been uploaded, demanding full transparency. Commenters compare it to the early Grok Build/Grok CLI backlash, where xAI had to open-source parts to regain trust — mocking both xAI and Zai on data protection.
