I can only imagine the kind of personal information or proprietary internal data that has been unwittingly transmitted due to tools like this.
If my objective was to gain the secrets of various worldwide entities, one of the first things I would do is set up seemingly innocent Pastebins, JSON checkers, online file format convertors and permanently retain all submitted data.
My number one requirement for a tool like this is that the JSON content never leaves the machine it's on.

I just want JSON with comments. I don't want YAML.
JSON5, and optionally it has trailing commas! It's all I use now.
I like the comments and trailing commas too. It has a few other small improvements as well.

Completely agree. I could actually get a lot of use out of a tool like this, but the fact that even the VSCode extension sends the JSON to their servers and opens it at a publicly accessible URL makes this a no-go for me. I wouldn't recommend anyone use this for any remotely sensitive data.
I like it, but don't love that it's a web app. I guess I could fork it myself, but don't particularly want to have to run a web app to browser JSON either. I wonder how easy it would be to port to Electron.

the extension apparently can be configured to use a locally running instance of the server. But yes, by default it uses the remote version, and thus you post publicly the json, which may or may not be ideal depending on what you're doing.
