Meta Pauses Muse Sharing After 6,800 AI Chat Links Surfaced in Public DNS

Summary
More than 6,800 Muse share links were found through public DNS records, prompting Meta to suspend the feature while it reviews how the URLs could be discovered.
Claroc said Muse built share addresses from a conversation title plus a random ID, making hostnames descriptive enough to reconstruct links and infer content before opening them.
Hundreds of exposed chats viewed by the researchers included a marketing firm's revenue review, a small-business loan application, a workplace's full-year calendar and job-call notes.
The lapse echoes earlier cases in which shared chats from ChatGPT, Claude and Grok became more public than users appeared to expect, including through Google Search.
