JetBrains is a company that, creates one of the most popular IDE for many programming languages. Although some of them are free, there is a paid option for 200€ for their full pack for a year (you can pay monthly, and you can choose a smaller pack or individual IDE). Also every year you pay the next one is cheaper.

They also have an AI agent Junie and an AI chat assostant, both currently running on Claude Sonnet 3.5 and 4 (can choose).

They also offer a free AI, which is running locally and can do very simple autocomplete and doesn't support any chatting ability.

However, as you might know, AI usually needs some code to work with. This autocomplete AI can be enabled to run online as well, thus sensing your code to either JB or Claude.

Of course, both chat and agent require internet access (but all this online functionality can be disabled and everything can be connected to custom AI model running locally or elsewhere, except I think agent).

OP is implying that they want money for their IDEs, their AI, and gobble up code fragments.

Oh, sorry, I should've been more specific.

I know about JetBrains and their AI agent, etc. I'm wondering if they recently did a switcheroo on their license/privacy policy/something that basically states "all your code are belong to us" now?

Is it time to go back to the plugin-hell called Eclipse?

Not just no, but hell no.

They can pull jetbrains-mono out of my cold dead terminal.
