I’m pretty surprised that Anthropic can directly impact the infra for AWS Bedrock as this article suggests. That goes against AWSs commitments. I’m sure the same is true for Google Vertex but I haven’t digged in there from a compliance perspective before.

Ok makes sense and glad to hear

Ok makes sense and I’d expect that a human can then see the context in that case although I hope it is still very explicit to the end user (I’m not a Claude Code user so I cannot comment)

This is pretty concerning. I can’t imagine the average person equates hitting this button with forfeiting their privacy.
> We don't directly manage AWS Bedrock deployments today, those are managed by AWS.
That was my understanding before this article. But the article is pretty clear that these were "infrastructure bugs" and the one related to AWS Bedrock specifically says it was because "requests were misrouted to servers". If Anthropic doesn't manage the AWS Bedrock deployments, how could it be impacting the load balancer?

When you click "thumbs down" you get the message "Submitting this report will send the entire current conversation to Anthropic for future improvements to our models." before you submit the report, I'd consider that pretty explicit.
