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 the person forced to use FB messenger because your friends are on it and won’t bother installing anything else

        Same, except WhatsApp instead of FB Messenger. I had no results trying to convince my family and friends to use other stuff

          id rather be using whatsapp, honestly

          it’s not good either, obviously, but messenger still collects a buttload more data

          (and iirc whatsapp encrypts both group chats and DMs, on messenger it’s only DMs)

      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 😑😑😑

          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.
