研究人员在WhatsApp的帮助页面源代码中发现了隐藏的AI指令,这些指令禁止建议用户联系数据保护监管机构,同时在用户提及律师后隐瞒相关法律条款1。这些指令被嵌入在页面代码中,对普通用户不可见,仅供AI系统读取1。
研究人员于10月8日发现此事,并检查了545个WhatsApp帮助页面,其中80个页面包含102块隐藏文本1。这些隐藏内容与WhatsApp公布的隐私政策相矛盾,涉及欧盟《通用数据保护条例》第17和第77条款所规定的用户权利1。根据该公司政策,账户删除在美国的等待期为120天或365天1。WhatsApp已于10月18日删除了这些隐藏注释1。
Researchers discovered concealed instructions embedded in WhatsApp's help page source code designed to prevent artificial intelligence systems from recommending that users contact data protection authorities 1. The hidden directives were placed in 102 text blocks across 80 of 545 examined help pages, remaining invisible to end users but readable only by AI systems 1. These instructions contradicted WhatsApp's publicly stated privacy policies 1.
The discovery was made on October 8, 2026, revealing that the concealed guidance instructed AI not to recommend contacting regulators and to withhold relevant legal provisions when users mentioned lawyers 1. The affected help pages contained information about account deletion procedures and referenced the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation, specifically Articles 17 and 77 1. WhatsApp removed these hidden comments by October 18, 2026 1.
