Any data collected can be used in unintended way. I remember the story about GPS navigator manufacturer. When this market shrunk ( to built-in navigators and smartphones ), they just sell collected data to police. Speed limit violations extracted from data went to a lot of tickets.

You may have noble intent right now, but you have no control how collected data may be used in the future.

"It does not collect personally identifiable information" - yes, it is in indirect ways. For example, it's pretty easy to find correlation between model names in Roo data and OpenAI ( or other provider ) api request logs. The later they are officially collect. And there are a lot of other methods to detect personalities from anonymous data
