The exposed chats reportedly also contain cryptocurrency wallet keys and personal addresses. The issue appears to stem from a user setting related to data sharing. Anthropic says they provide sharing controls and don't send directories to search engines, but acknowledge that when users share conversations publicly, third parties like Google may archive the content.
