Thanks Claude, the analysis looks to be load-bearing, and dare I say the gun may be smoking. This sharpens the framing considerably.
Honest caveat: most AI providers' privacy policies have an explicit carve-out for feedback. (Uploading the last 5 sessions wholesale is pretty wild though.)
FWIW, this particular header in news articles is a deliberate choice originated by Axios. It’s notable enough and effective enough they wrote a book about it.

Not informing the user of that feels wrong, and even then you'd probably want like a dropdown to choose between just the current session vs the last 5 if that much context is really needed, with either Off or 1 being the default.
Claude Code has a clear disclaimer, probably exactly how it should be done:

I feel the same way but don’t let some bad blogs dissuade you from others IMO. You can tell pretty quickly if the author cares enough to write it themselves or have an agent do it.

You’ve submitted nearly 100 AI written articles from this source in the past 40 days…
AI has completely killed blogs for me, I don't bother anymore unless I'm familiar with the blog from years before.
