I can understand the frustration, but I think there are legitimate reasons to run this remotely.

Tach is an installable Python package, shipping a full web app would have to come in a separate form factor and has significant maintenance implications. Given we are explicit about the remote app before anything is sent, require explicit opt-in, and we provide usable alternatives locally, we prioritize shipping a useful graph experience that is immediately usable.

If you are at an enterprise that cannot tolerate this, then you can use a local viewer with either GraphViz DOT format or Mermaid which is generated by using `tach show` or `tach show --mermaid` respectively.
