User says Claude Code uncovered 14,219 unknown face photos on Android

Original: Claude Code found 14,219 photos of my face on my Android that I never took

A developer running Claude Code on their Android device says the AI coding tool found 14,219 photos of their face that they never took, raising questions about how those images ended up on the phone. The claim is drawing attention to smartphone photo storage practices and the unexpected discoveries users can make when AI agents scan local files. Details about the photos' origin have not been verified.
