Straight answers, in plain language
Does Sunny cost anything?
No. Sunny is completely free and open source. No subscriptions, ads, or hidden fees.
Do I need an internet connection?
An internet connection helps Sunny fetch recipes, weather, and news. Basic computer help works without one.
Can Sunny be tricked into doing something dangerous?
No. Sunny refuses terminal commands, passwords, network scanning, or hacking. Every sensitive action asks permission first and defaults to "No".
