Mozilla Petition> Meta: Help Users Stop Accidentally Sharing Private AI Conversations

Meta recently launched its own AI app, like ChatGPT. The Meta AI app comes with a “Discover Feed” — a public stream of real user AI conversations posted by users. Meta says that users know that they're sharing their AI conversations publicly. But a number of posts suggest otherwise. You can find posts that appear to show users' personal data, medical issues, work problems, and calendar reminders in the Discover Feed.

Imagine being a Facebook user since it's inception and realizing how little they actually care about privacy

Hi, it's me, I'm that person 😑😑😑

Never to late to change.

BTW Lemmy doesn't encrypt DM as far as I know.

Yeah, my instance has a nice big banner that reminds you of that.

Working on getting my data and making sure some friends know how to contact me outside of it.

I don't use DMs on Lemmy, either.

I deleted my FB account (originally opened in 2006) the day I saw zuck on the inauguration stage with the fascists, and honestly that was way too late too haha

Yeah, I stopped using it a while ago. Need to get my data off and then it's getting deleted,

There is the idea of just being an npc on the surface. So what if it is your Facebook account if you never install the app, never post anything and just use it to buy lawnmowers and used cars?

Your existence isn't private by default, so make it all you give them and nothing more.
