Meta AI app allegedly reveals private conversations
Technology
Meta's latest AI app, which works with Facebook, WhatsApp, and Instagram, is facing backlash for showing users' private conversations in a public "Discover" feed. There aren't clear warnings, so people have ended up sharing sensitive info like addresses or legal details without realizing it.
How to fix the issue
A lot of users don't know their chats could go public because the privacy settings are confusing and not well explained. You have to dig into the app to protect your privacy—something Meta hasn't made obvious. Still, the app has already been downloaded 6.5 million times, so if you're using it, double-check your settings before you share anything personal.
