lol. Weird article yeah.
The searches showed Claude chats for which a user had decided to "share" a link had been saved by search engines like Google, leaving them accessible to the broader public.
So... people created public links, shared them to the public, and got surprised they were public?
The share option within Claude tells a user that "anyone with the link" may view the contents of that link, but does not explicitly state that the link may end up in Google and search results.
LOL. Yeah!
