Previously, you could also opt out of AI model training with OpenAI, but the process was much more cumbersome, requiring you to first find and then fill out a special data opt-out form.
With this setting turned off, OpenAI says it won’t use your data to train its AI models. In an April 25 blog post, OpenAI announced that it will now be possible to turn off your chat history in ChatGPT by simply toggling the Chat History & Training setting off in your account. Under regulatory pressure, ChatGPT simplifies privacy controlsįaced with a ban in Italy, the threat of a defamation lawsuit, and mounting regulatory pressure in the EU, OpenAI has been on a mission to re-establish itself as a privacy-friendly service (that is, after initially training its models by crawling the entire Internet, including the copyrighted part of it, for data). To do this, you can go to Settings → Privacy, search, and service → Services and toggle off the Show suggestions to follow creators in Microsoft Edge setting. Microsoft told The Verge that it’s been investigating the issue, but while it’s unclear when it will be fixed, you’d be better off if you just disable the feature. Browsing history can reveal a lot about you, including your interests, location, financial status, and even medical information, and when someone exposes it without your knowledge or consent, it’s a privacy and security violation.

While both Edge and the Bing API are owned by Microsoft, Edge users have not consented to their full browsing history being sent to the Bing API, which is a serious breach of user trust. The issue was traced to an apparent bug in the implementation of a new Edge feature known as “follow creators.” The feature, which is enabled by default in the latest version of the browser, allows users to follow creators directly in Edge, such as receive notifications of their latest posts without having to subscribe to them on other platforms, such as YouTube. The problem was first spotted by users on Reddit, who noticed that Edge was sending the full URLs of nearly every website users would visit to. Microsoft’s Edge browser has been caught sharing full itineraries of users’ web travels with the Bing API, a service it uses for its Bing search engine.
