I am kind of in the same boat, but I run my agent on dedicated hardware because I have the same paranoia.

I can’t run the risk of having it delete thousands of dollars of previous work.

I asked my agent what the risks are, and it said because you are technically opening up your own hardware to an AI, it could be used for something illegal and you are liable because it is your hardware doing that which is illegal.

Some of it sounded pretty intense.
