Hot Take:
DeepSeek is diving deep into the murky waters of cybersecurity, and it seems their database was swimming without a life jacket. When your AI’s secret recipe might as well be on a billboard in Times Square, it’s time to rethink your privacy strategy. Maybe they thought ClickHouse was a new nightclub, not a place to lock up their data!
