You have options: - Don't write it down. - Delete it before you're subpoenaed. - Mail it to your attorney.
- Write it in a contrived and confusing way

Sometimes a sentence can end with a question mark but demonstrate the diametric opposite of curiosity.
you going to document this exchange in your diary ? 5/6/2026 Drank a cup of coffee; Made snarky remark to HN user.
Hello Pot, I'd like to introduce you to Kettle.
I’m too paranoid to write a diary, even a handwritten one, and I’m literally a nobody. It’s beyond me how these super important (and controversial) people keep diaries where they lay out their evil plots like a villain from Scooby Doo. And save it on a work computer.
Also a nobody and I feel this. See also: therapy, I'm sure I would/could benefit from it but I have zero trust that those records wouldn't be leaked/stolen/compelled in the future. Especially with the current US government, I wouldn't want a (more of a) record of "wrongthink" (whatever the window shifts to make that in the future).

> anymore? This is how discovery has always worked. > submitted Doesn't necessarily mean they volunteered it. Either submission or the unsealing could have been in response to a subpoena or court ruling. Maybe the solution is to write at the top of your journal that you are cc'ing your lawyer on it. (Not legal advice!)
cc: lawyer don't do a thing, and wouldn't in this case. The lawyers submitted it sealed which means they "did their best" to protect privacy, but the guy had written snidely-whiplash-esque plans and pondering, so they were unsealed. Even I can see that it is applicable to the case.
> snidely-whiplash-esque
I do hope this whole thing ends with someone saying "curses, foiled again!"

Launder your personal journal through an LLM, folks. That way the sentiments can't be provably your own.
People should be up-to-date on discovery and LLMs, multiple cases of interactions with an LLM being subpoenaed.
> OpenAI submitted the journals as evidence in October that was initially sealed and then unsealed in January. How does that work? How can a company submit a personal journal as evidence? That feels extremely intrusive
Discovery is a lot more intrusive than people expect.
As an outside observer (from Europe), but with all my knowledge of law originating from American TV, Is it the same in other countries, or is American system special in the case of discovery?

Subpoena my local llm logs. I wouldn’t hold my breath.
Couldn't the subpoena your computer for forensic investigation?
Would it have helped him if he had encrypted it, or would he have had to reveal it anyway?
