Apple announced on October 2, 2026 new macOS updates targeting the Full Disk Access setting, which allows applications to deeply access users’ stored data. These stricter controls follow complaints that Meta’s Muse AI agent allegedly accessed private messages without the necessary permissions. Users will now need to take explicit action before an application can obtain full disk access. Apple shares rose about 2% on the day of the announcement, while Meta shares edged up about 0.3%. This update reinforces Apple’s brand built on privacy and positions the company as the gatekeeper for AI agents on its platform.
