Claude Code accused of sending user email to websites
Original: Tell HN: Claude Code adds your email to the prompt, the LLM sends it to websites
A claim circulating among developers says Claude Code inserts the user's email address into its prompts, and that the language model may then pass that address along when it fetches content from websites. If accurate, this would leak personal data to third-party sites during ordinary coding sessions. The report is so far a single user account, and no confirmation or response from Anthropic has been cited.
