my little brother tried to show me a “cool trick” where he entered my name and hometown into chatgpt and tried to get it to pull up my personal info like it did on all of his friends, then was absolutely shocked when it couldn’t find anything on me

so. keep practicing basic internet safety, guys. it still works. don’t put your personal info on social media, keep all your accounts on private, turn off ai scraping on every site that you can, enable all privacy features on social media apps. our info still can be protected, we have to keep fighting for control

Hey y'all in the notes, typing your personal info into google/chatGPT to “check” whether its been leaked online somewhere counts as leaking it online somewhere, hope this helps!
