Summary
Apple will add new limits to "full disk access" on Mac in response to risks posed by AI agents, according to an update it published on Friday. The controls are meant to ensure that users who want to grant an app this level of access can do so only with very explicit user action. The change follows a report by Inc's Jason Aten that Meta's Muse AI knew the contents of his messages without explicit permission, which Meta disputed.
