How does it discover the link though? Is it crawling your whatsapp chats, or just trying every possible chatgpt share link?
Y'all need to read the 5 minute article. It was a short lived feature where they had a checkbox that said: "index my chat into search engines". Which is honestly dumb as shit if you ask me.
sounds to me just like googles bots are finding them... could also just be maybe chrome or similar taking note when it finds a page and dropping a dime to google.
