Some Claude Chats Are Searchable on Google
Summary
Some Claude conversations are appearing in Google search results, exposing sensitive data like cryptocurrency wallet keys and personal information because users unknowingly made their chats public through a sharing setting. Anthropic states they don't share chat directories with search engines, but when users enable public sharing, their conversations become searchable by third-party services like Google.
