Proton warns "don't give ChatGPT your address," the internet replies: it already knows

Proton Drive posted a repeated privacy warning — "DON'T GIVE CHATGPT YOUR ADDRESS" — only for cocktailpeanut to quote it with "it already knows bro," pointing out that ChatGPT likely already knows far more about users than what they choose to disclose.
The exchange highlights a real tension in AI privacy debates: vendors urge users not to feed personal data to chatbots, while models may already infer or hold much of that information.
