๐Ÿ” Apple just stepped in after users said Meta's AI agent was reading their private messages.

Apple is updating macOS to require much more explicit user action before any #AIAgent can get Full Disk Access โ€” the feature that lets apps read everything on your Mac. The move follows complaints about Meta's Muse, which some users claimed accessed their private messages without their knowledge.

Meta says Muse's access to Messages is strictly opt-in โ€” you have to enable both Full Disk Access and the Messages connector. But Apple isn't waiting around: it says as #AIAgents become more capable and autonomous, the risks of this level of access will grow substantially.
