Privacy question - what will Kite do with the source code stored in its databases when/if Kite shuts down or is acquired? How will you respect the licenses of the files you upload?

(paraphrased) "You trust Github/Slack, why not also trust us?" Perhaps because Github and Slack's monitization models are well known, and Kite's are not.

It's a great concept for a tool, but I could never get it to fly at work. I couldn't even begin to imagine trying to convince a technically savvy cofounder (let alone their lawyer) with "let me use this tool which uploads all of our code to their server."
