I looked into this and no longer have these concerns.Thank you for this. I have some security concerns, and I am uninstalling the software after I received the message below from my university. Can you please respond here to explain?
"IS&T Information Security received a Crowdstrike alert about some software you downloaded from donethat.ai. Presumably it was intentional, but this software comes installed with what looks like keylogger functionality. ...Having a keylogger on your system is pretty risky. Even if they purport to not store data, there is always the risk that the software or your machine is compromised, and the data stream is intercepted for misuse"
...
This installer wrote the following file, which is associated with keylogging functionality:
FILE: ...\node_modules\node-global-key-listener\bin\WinKeyServer.exe"
Do you think that it would be better to just add a helpful or heart emoji to the post instead? I used to leave the same sorts of comments as Ben. These got downvoted occasionally. I interpreted this pattern as being due to people not appreciating these sorts of 'thank you comments'. When emoji react were added, I therefore switched to emoji reacting, as I felt that this would achieve the same outcomes without creating the 'noise' of a 'thank you comment'. However, I could go back to leaving comments if that seems like a better approach.
Thanks for this. Is there a place where I can see the sources you are using here?
I am particularly interested in the source for this:
"The other graph here is an interesting one. It's the financial returns to IQ over two cohorts. The blue line is the older cohort, it's from 50 years ago or something. It's got some slope. And then the red line is a newer cohort. And that's a much steeper slope. What that means is basically for every extra IQ point you have, in the new cohort you get about twice as much money on average for that IQ point. "
Yeah, I can see how that’s a bit of a dilemma. To avoid the flags, maybe you could make it a separate download or something people have to specifically email you to request.
I can also imagine that for some people, especially those in certain jobs, the screenshots or logging features won’t be worth the risk. On that note, I decided to uninstall the tool myself, given the security considerations and the requirements from my employer.
