It's not about AI specifically. It's about the awareness that, as soon as you post it to social media, your personal information is not under your control anymore. There was and is still a good reason why you should not post personal info on the internet, even on seemingly "safe" spaces like social media pages.
But people in general don't care anyway and they won't care about this headline too.
I think it’s less that most people don’t care, or wouldn’t if you explained it, and more that nobody has the power to really do anything about it. Even if you can cut Meta out of your life they still track you and make ghost profiles of you in their data. I’ve never input any identifying information into meta, and my name is so generic it’s practically adjacent to “John smith”, but it still knows who my family and former coworkers are.
