Meta Muse pays with one-time card numbers, quietly inserting itself into checkout

Part 3 of the Muse thread: when Muse checks out, it pays via Stripe's Link with a one-time card number instead of your real one, and Shop Pay is coming next. The author argues Meta is quietly inserting itself into the actual payment step across the whole internet — potentially sitting between you and every merchant's checkout the way it already sits between you and every ad. The quoted part 2 adds that credentials sit in a separate store the agent can't read, and a second agent, Sentinel, must sign off on anything before it leaves the machine.
