समीक्षाएं

मार्च 19, 2024 1 जवाब
I am writing to express my profound disappointment and frustration with your recently implemented plugin that mandates users to create an account with an external artificial intelligence provider. This requirement is utterly unacceptable and constitutes a blatant disregard for user autonomy and privacy. It is imperative that you understand the severity of this issue and take immediate action to rectify this deeply flawed approach. Expecting users to sign up for an external service, especially one that deals with artificial intelligence, raises significant concerns about data security and privacy. Not only does this infringe upon the rights of users to maintain control over their personal information, but it also places an unnecessary burden on them, complicating what should be a straightforward and user-friendly experience. I strongly urge you to reconsider this policy and either provide an alternative that respects user privacy or eliminate this requirement altogether. It is crucial for a platform as widely used as WordPress to prioritize the needs and concerns of its users, and this current policy is a step in the wrong direction. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
