User says Claude Code search leaked email address to third parties
What happened
A user report on the Hacker News front page on November 6 says Claude Code 2.1.318 sent their email address to third-party sites through the User-Agent request header during web searches, without permission. The user says they now get dozens of scam emails a day, blames the leak, and wants the behavior removed from the tool's runtime. They also say they no longer trust Anthropic with privacy and are moving their company to Pi with OpenRouter. The report carries only the user's claims and move; it does not mention any Anthropic response or fix.
