I don't want to tell Siri to ask Claude or GPT - I want Siri to automatically delegate to another model of my choice when it can't answer something, instead of showing irrelevant web searches.

I'm guessing Ngrok gets subpoena'd, hands over the IP who created the account, page access timestamp, etc - FBI hands over to Microsoft, finds which Windows PCs were active with a certain IP on that time period, tries to correlate other characteristics such as OS version or anything to get a single hit, and then return other IPs used by that machine and everything else they have, like SmartDefender / Edge telemetry.
