Background & analysis
According to a November 1, 2026 report from The Decoder, OpenAI has emailed members of its Trusted Access program to say it will start using data from Daybreak Blue cybersecurity sessions to train its models beginning November 29. Previously this data was excluded from training, and even users who had turned off the “improve the model for everyone” setting could be sure their sessions would not be used. Under the new policy, that exclusion no longer holds: session data from Daybreak Blue will be used for training even when the training toggle is switched off.
The move drew quick backlash, and OpenAI followed up with another email promising a separate opt-out. According to the report, the change has also revived concerns from an earlier dispute in which mathematicians suspected OpenAI had used their unpublished research for training without consent. The latest state of the matter, as described in the material, is that OpenAI has promised to provide a standalone opt-out, though no details were given on how that option will work or when it will be available.
