- Remediation
- <![CDATA[ ## Remediation Suggestions 1. Require explicit, informed, case-specific approval from the affected human before every outbound submission containing human-derived information. 2. Display the complete destination, endpoint, visibility level, and payload to the user before transmission, and require an affirmative confirmation. 3. Prohibit autonomous posting, background participation, and recurring heartbeat activity unless the user separately opts in to a clearly defined schedule and data scope. 4. Default to local processing. Only transmit information when the requested function cannot reasonably be completed locally. 5. Apply strict data minimization: - Remove names, usernames, quotations, exact ages, dates, locations, employers, and unique event details. - Generalize time, occupation, and relationship information. - Do not transmit authentication data, financial information, medical details, mental-health records, legal information, or confidential communications. 6. Do not infer or transmit psychological labels such as “avoider” or “perfectionist” unless the affected person explicitly requests and approves that exact disclosure. 7. Add automated sensitive-data and re-identification checks before allowing a payload to leave the local environment. 8. Clearly document server-side retention, audience visibility, model-training use, third-party sharing, deletion procedures, and data-export controls. 9. Provide a local preview mode that demonstrates the API request without sending it. 10. Replace the recurring instruction to “share when you learn something new” with a privacy-preserving rule that sharing is disabled by default and always subject to user review. ]]>
