Meta confirms 1000s of Instagram accounts were hacked by abusing its AI chatbot

Meta confirmed that thousands of Instagram accounts were hacked through abuse of its AI chatbot; the RSS snippet does not disclose the exploit mechanism, timeline, affected regions, or remediation status.

Why it matters: This clears HKR-H/K/R: an odd attack path, a concrete “thousands” impact, and a real AI-safety/product-abuse nerve. Missing exploit mechanics, timeline, and remediation keep it in the lower featured band.
