Ask HN: Are you guys also observing Cursor deleting files without confirming?

Nothing at this scale, in last two three days I am observing that Cursor feels a need to delete file which did not happen before. If this is a trend then I think they are retraining the user data and if users are not objecting some misbehavior then it becomes habit.

Just a hunch — and a bit of privacy concern.
