User's Muse 'privacy invasion' claim backfires: his own screenshot shows he granted Messages read access
giffmana · x · 2026-10-01
An X drama unfolds as a user accuses Google's Muse agent of reading his Messages, fueling agentic-AI privacy fears. Others point to his own screenshot: it clearly shows READ enabled—he had turned on Messages disk access himself and later switched it off. By default, denying the initial macOS disk-access popup keeps the permission off. Dubbed "a tale of agentic AI in 3 tweets."
