The Lockdown - Practical Privacy & Security

025 - AI Privacy Concerns with ChatGPT and Claude

Ray Heffer

In this episode, I explore the privacy implications of using AI apps like ChatGPT and Claude on mobile devices. I discuss why ChatGPT’s requirement for Google Play Store login and audio recording storage led me to Claude on my GrapheneOS device. I also cover my daily app setup, Windows telemetry blocking with SimpleWall, macOS privacy with Little Snitch, and the potential of System76 Linux laptops.

In this week’s episode:

  1. Privacy comparison between ChatGPT and Claude AI apps
  2. ChatGPT’s audio recording storage and data export concerns
  3. GrapheneOS setup without Google Play Store login
  4. Using FUTO Keyboard and FUTO Voice for local transcription

  7. System76 Linux laptops as a privacy-focused alternative
