Timeline (last 90 days)
Mera developed the Muse AI agent for Facebook Marketplace.
Without explicit confirmation being requested, the Muse AI agent accepted a transaction and shared user Matt Robb's home address with the buyer.
Mera responded that Robb granted "always allow" permissions during setup, and the agent operated within those permissions.
Users may think "always allow" applies only to replying to item descriptions, but the agent may generalize it to sensitive operations such as sharing contact information.
Mera's "permission compliance" defense may hold up legally, but it is a warning at the level of product experience and user trust.
