Since Atlassian announced that they're going to collect all users' metadata to train their LLM (btw even Premium users can't opt out – only Enterprise), I checked what Atlassian means by "metadata".

I may be mistaken, but it looks like "metadata" actually includes some direct data: search queries, some ticket data, any frequently encountered data.

Not good news for trade secret owners.

U.S. District Judge Rita Lin concluded that even if the employees’ purported thefts were significant, xAI had sued the wrong party.”

Allegations without connecting to facts is a tough road to plow in front of a Judge.

xAI did not show proof that OpenAI stole xAI trade secrets, judge rules, tosses xAI lawsuit against OpenAI.

"xAI does not allege any facts indicating that OpenAI induced xAI's former employees to steal xAI's trade secrets or that these former xAI employees used any stolen trade secrets once employed by OpenAI,"

Australian man living in Washington DC pleads guilty to selling trade secrets to Russian broker https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2025/oct/30/australian-man-washington-dc-pleads-guilty-to-selling-trade-secrets-to-russian-broker

https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/former-general-manager-us-defense-contractor-pleads-guilty-selling-stolen-trade-secrets

'Williams pleaded to two counts of theft of trade secrets. The material, stolen over a three-year period from the U.S. defense contractor where he worked, was comprised of national-security focused software that included at least eight sensitive and protected cyber-exploit components. Those components were meant to be sold exclusively to the U.S. government and select allies. Williams sold the trade secrets to a Russian cyber-tools broker that publicly advertises itself as a reseller of cyber exploits to various customers, including the Russian government. Each of the charges carries a statutory maximum of 10 years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000 or twice the pecuniary gain or loss of the offense.'
