OpenAI Training Opt-Out Setting Silently Re-Enabled for Users

ATLAS OWASP MEDIUM Moderate risk · Monitor closely ▲ 6.2 OpenAI (via HN)

Multiple users report that OpenAI's 'allow training' opt-out setting is being silently re-enabled after they deliberately disabled it, raising serious concerns about data governance and user consent. A similar pattern has been observed on Anthropic's Claude platform, suggesting this may be a broader industry practice tied to TOS updates or subscription renewals. The behaviour undermines the integrity of privacy controls and means sensitive user conversations may be incorporated into training datasets without genuine informed consent.
