Well, your AChatGPT connection might be private but your Windows machine will leak like a sieve. It is embarrassing how needy the blasted things are about signing in via Azure/Microsoft, instead of a local or AD account. Even worse is the naff "choose how insidious you would like us to be" series of questions. How would you like your ads? Targeted or non targeted? How about not at all? Nope.
In this day and age, exactly how private does anyone expect their comms/thoughts/files/data to be? I recall reading a recent MS EULA and it seems I have to say three Hail Marys every third Tuesday for using Arch Linux on my PCs. I could install Edge, and did but I don't like the nasty homepage - a bit right wing ... - why on earth is a browser pushing "news"? Its a browser. To be fair I had to dump all the homepage crap that Firefox pushed when I finally dumped anything to do with Chrome.
Please don't use the words private and secure when you have your fingers crossed behind your back.
