lev

What lev sends out of your computer by default, when, to whom, and the switch that stops it, version by version, with how we know.

The answer

We found no call out in lev's code at commit 0ea955f5, read with its network clients enumerated: it reaches Hugging Face only when you name a Hub ID instead of a local folder, and its other downloads belong to its benchmark data and its cloud training setup; we did not run it.
