Potentially dumb question that’s been on my mind since first learning about crypto: When you enter your seed phrase into a wallet, how do you know the provider isn’t doing something else with it, like storing it in a log somewhere? It happens with passwords - how are wallets different, why should we trust them?

Famously happened at Twitter And I may or may not have seen log files with passwords in places I’ve worked as well https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/twitter-admits-recording-plaintext-passwords-in-internal-logs-just-like-github/
