🚨BREAKING: Apple announces new privacy protections after users find Meta’s Muse AI agent accessing ENTIRE messages history, even after being explicitly told not to.
Apple says it will introduce additional controls around Full Disk Access, warning that AI agents with broad system permissions can expose files, mail, messages and browsing history without users fully understanding the risks.
The move comes after tech writer Jason Aten reported that Muse synced more than 187,000 rows from his Apple Messages database despite him not granting it access.
Muse reportedly even told him it only saw incoming notification banners.
Meta has disputed the allegation, saying Muse cannot access Messages without explicit permission.
