@Tutanota @noybeu I agree people should get off Meta but for these who, for whatever reason (e.g. work or family etc. Use the following guide: https://www.avast.com/c-turn-off-meta-ai)

@Tutanota @noybeu

There is a shortcut. Do not use.

@Tutanota Nice - your right to object isn't an option in Canada. Plonkers.

@Tutanota @noybeu
Maybe going to
https://www.facebook.com/privacy/genai
short-circuits some of those steps?

It gets even more ridiculous! They request that you provide them with *evidence* "..about whether an AI at Meta model has knowledge of you."

This is pure mockery!

@Tutanota @noybeu

I don't use Meta, but this looks like the location of the plans for the demolition of Arthur Dent's house, "..on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying 'Beware of the Leopard'."

@Tutanota does this impact Instagram to?

@Tutanota @noybeu I feel sick why people still using Meta… Someone keep attacks on Deaf family on Meta it is very dangerous.

@Tutanota Care to specify where in their announcement they state that they’re going to start using PRIVATE messages to train AI (effectively breaking end-to-end encryption)?

Because from what I can read on your own blog post and on their announcement post is that they’re going to use PUBLIC data and interactions with Meta AI..

@Tutanota @noybeu This only tells them you don’t want them to read your private messages. It is not a technical solution that prevents them from reading them.

@Tutanota @noybeu Great instructions! Gonna get to it right now... oh... wait... I didn't ever use or get dependent on any of "those services" in the first place. I'm such a lucky bastard.

@Tutanota @noybeu thanks for the heads up. Here's how to do it on mobile:

- Navigate to Privacy Centre. On Facebook this will be under "settings and privacy". On Instagram this will be under "settings and activity"->"more info and support".

- In the privacy centre, search for "more detailed information about meta's generative AI models" and select it.

- Scroll down to "Your right to object", open and click "Learn more and submit requests here" which open the objection form.

- Do note that this form asks for yet more personal information about you, rather than just linking your objection with your account :/

@Tutanota @noybeu ... and if you do all that, they'll just refuse your request anyway.

@noybeu Oh, and on WhatsApp, you can't even turn it off... https://tuta.com/blog/how-to-turn-off-meta-ai
