Claude Link Exposure Spurs 4-Chatbot Privacy Guide as Anthropic Fixes Search Indexing

Summary
Conversations shared from Claude were found reachable through Google dork searches, prompting a fresh guide on locking down privacy across ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot and Claude.
Anthropic said it fixed the indexing issue, but the report argues user settings still matter because public links, chat history, training permissions and memory features can keep sensitive exchanges exposed.
ChatGPT, Gemini and Copilot all let users limit retention or training, though Gemini’s strongest opt-out also turns off saved activity and history; Claude offers incognito chats and private sharing instead of public links.
Across all 4 chatbots, the main safeguards are the same: avoid public share links, delete sensitive chats, disable model-training and memory options, and review connected services or voice-recording settings.
