Apple (苹果) plans stronger Mac privacy controls, requiring explicit user action before granting applications, including AI agents, full-disk access.

Apple’s announcement concerns planned changes to how users grant broad data-access permissions. In a Friday statement described by the source, Apple said additional Mac controls would require a very explicit user action (非常明确的用户操作) before an application receives full-disk access (完全磁盘访问权限).

The report describes that permission as allowing access to system files, email, messages, and browsing history. Apple said users should understand the associated risks before granting access so they can make informed decisions about their data and privacy.

Apple’s warning applies to third-party software, including increasingly capable and autonomous AI agents. The company did not name a particular application or developer, and the supplied statement provides no release date or operating-system version for the new controls.
