Meta’s Model Capability Initiative (MCI) captures keystrokes, mouse movements, and clicks on certain applications to provide real examples for training AI models. Q&A documents state MCI can capture the contents of emails or messages sent to or by US personnel regardless of sender or recipient location. Reuters reports the tool could therefore collect non-US data when US employees chat or email with people outside the US. Meta says it notified non-US employees that the tool was deployed on US colleagues’ computers and claims it mitigated privacy risks while committing to legal compliance. A legal expert warns that even limited collection of EU employee data could violate GDPR, which requires a legal basis and specific disclosures for personal-data collection.
""If a US-based colleague has the tool enabled while gchatting or emailing with someone outside the US, that activity would be captured," Meta wrote in the document."
