Two months after "no opt-out," Meta paused the staff tracker its own employees warned about
Meta has paused its Model Capability Initiative (MCI), the AI training program that tracked US employees' keystrokes, mouse clicks and screen content, after an internal security notice revealed the data had leaked companywide. Roughly 45,000 hive tables holding private conversations and performance records were exposed. The reversal comes two months after Meta told staff there was no opt-out, and follows a petition signed by over 1,600 workers.
