Claude Private Chats Exposed on Google Search

Shared Claude conversations and Artifacts, including health records, children's personal data, and confidential company documents, were publicly searchable on Google after Reddit users discovered a simple search operator could surface them. The issue appears resolved as of Monday afternoon. Anthropic blamed users, stating links only appear in search results when posted publicly elsewhere. Critics note the share feature's wording implies limited sharing, not full internet exposure. Users can review their shared chats under Settings, Privacy, Shared Chats.
