Case three. A confession, typed alone at night. Where do our secrets go when we tell them to a machine? June twenty twenty-five.
People pour their lives into Meta's AI app. Health worries. Legal trouble. Then they tap a button called share.
Those chats could land on a public feed called Discover. Some showed addresses and phone numbers. Meta says chats are private by default, and you have to choose to share. Critics said the button never made clear where the words would go.
Meta added a warning: prompts you post are public. So before you confess to a machine: read the button. Check the settings. And remember, a chatbot is not a diary with a lock.
Privacy isn't a setting you find once. It's a habit. Case closed.

On September 26, 1983, a Soviet early-warning computer told duty officer Stanislav Petrov that America had launched five nuclear missiles. Every reading said yes. He decided it was a false alarm, and he was right: the satellite had mistaken sunlight on clouds for rocket flames. A film about the man who did not believe the machine, and why every machine that matters needs a person who can say no.

On October 30, 1938, Orson Welles put Martians on the radio, and by morning America had a legend: mass panic. The evidence says it mostly didn't happen. A three-and-a-half-minute film on how newspapers built the myth, and the real, deadly panic in Quito eleven years later that almost nobody remembers.
