11 steps to keep Meta from stealing your data to train AIdeborahcopaken.substack.com You only have until June 26, 2024 to say no to Meta taking your personal photos and words and using them to train their generative AI. Here are step-by-step directions for opting out.

But don't worry, I've got you. This is precisely 100 characters: I am exercising my right, under data protection laws, to object to my personal data being processed. Drabbles to our infernal electronic overlords.

Thank you for this! They actually let me submit the form on the first try, thanks to you.

Done, what an absolute pain in the bum, but sod 'em, we'll see who rusts first.

Denied. I think the issue is with the example prompt(s) you're supposed to provide. Like you're supposed to have found evidence they've been up to something dodgy before they'll cop to it. I'm going to proceed on the basis that objecting to the initial alert was sufficient for now. 🙄

It was another of their non-obvious links off the "right to object" text in the message below.

The notification in question was phrased "We're planning new AI features for you", appeared around four weeks ago.

I did one a while ago that they said was approved. Do you think I need to do it again?

Well, I think it can't HURT. The more push-back they get, the better.
