Tencent Cloud responds to security issues related to OpenClaw and Tencent's "Lobster". Regarding whether OpenClaw will "crazily" deduct money from users, Tencent Cloud mentioned that there is a screenshot circulating on social platforms, showing a user installing OpenClaw during Tencent Cloud's public welfare installation event and subsequently incurring high "runaway" costs, totaling more than 200 yuan. Tencent Cloud responded that after investigating and verifying in the background, it was found that the 200 yuan was the user's historical model call fees. "The installation of OpenClaw itself is free, but if large models are called during use, token fees will be incurred, which is the case for almost all Agent tools at present," Tencent Cloud said.
