Yes, please.
We can’t stop LLM developers from scraping our conversations if they’re determined to do so, but we can at least make our wishes clear. If they respect our wishes, then great. If they don’t, then they’ll be unable to plead ignorance, and our signpost in the road (along with those from other instances) might influence legislation as it’s drafted in the coming years.
