OpenCode Go floats opt-in data collection
The post says OpenCode Go is currently zero data retention, but asks whether users would be willing to opt in to data collection so the team can increase usage limits and make the service more sustainable by training future open source models. The current docs still describe Go as beta and state that providers follow a zero-retention policy and do not use data for model training, so this reads as an early policy test rather than a shipped change.
// ANALYSIS
Hot take: this is a classic privacy-versus-sustainability tradeoff pitch, and the answer will depend on whether users trust the opt-in boundary and believe the upside is real.
- –OpenCode Go is positioning data collection as a way to fund better limits and long-term sustainability.
- –The current documented stance is still zero-retention, so this appears to be a proposal or user survey, not an active policy shift.
- –Because the product is aimed at developers, privacy and code confidentiality are likely the main friction point.
- –If they can make the opt-out/opt-in split explicit and auditable, this could be a workable model for users who want cheaper access.
