They are training AI on your life. Here is how to stop it. #MuseAI #Meta #AI #aiprivacy
The short version: Mading Thok breaks down how Meta's Muse AI quietly ingests your DMs, calendar, and health data by default, and shows how to lock it down.
Our Take
Credit to Mading Thok for laying out, step by step, just how much of your private life Meta's new Muse AI wants to swallow the moment you connect an account. DMs, doctor's appointments, emails, health apps — all pulled in by default, all potentially used to train Meta's models, with your only real protection being a corporate policy promise rather than encryption. That's the same pattern we see over and over in surveillance tech: convenience first, consent buried in a settings menu, and "trust us" standing in for actual technical safeguards.
This isn't just a Meta story. It's the same playbook as Flock Safety's camera network: a private company builds a system that hoovers up data on ordinary people's daily movements and routines, sells it as a helpful tool, and leaves the public to discover after the fact how deep the access really goes. Whether it's your calendar or your license plate, the lesson is identical — nobody is coming to protect your privacy by default. You have to go find the toggle yourself, and even then, deletion isn't guaranteed.
If you're the type to turn off "Help improve our AI models" the moment you read a story like this, you already get why ALPR surveillance deserves the same scrutiny.
