I don't trust anything coming out of China. They are notorious for having data leaks, back doors, phone home, etc. crap in their apps.

And hardware... seen quite a few things on amazon that people are saying it quietly phones home. (kvm, wifi usb, etc)

yup

i dont trust both american and chinese, but chinese is usually cheaper so xD

pro plan is about 25€

every plan is more expensive for Portugal

Does openai have cheaper plans based on location? I know steam has really cheap games from certain regions. ?

Claude is cheaper for Nigeria

I gave in and bought claude max 5x

shh don't tell my wife

she is very anti ai and is already annoyed that I use it at work

My issue with the 5x plan.. is there is no real benefit. Its 5x more usage but its 5x the price.. so if you only use 3x that week, you just wasted the extra usage. They IMO should have it like 8x or 10x usage for 5x the price. Give something beneficial.

I agree, the only extra if you go to 200/m for 20x

Speaking of usage.. let us know if you hit the limit with 5x!

I was burning through pro in less than two days
