Meta's Cuddly Spy Wears a Furby Suit

🔥 What happened Meta launched "Muse Charm," a keychain-sized AI assistant that looks like a kids' toy and asks for access to email, messages, photos, and financial accounts. In a guest op-ed, victims' rights attorney Carrie Goldberg compares the marketing to tobacco and vape companies using cute designs to hook young users. 💡 Why it matters Using Muse Charm doesn't just expose your data: private chats and intimate photos from friends and partners also end up with Meta without their consent. Goldberg's firm already sued xAI over non-consensual sexualized images and Amazon over suicide kits – setting up a product-liability precedent for AI. ⚡ Our take A gadget that looks like a Pixar character and feels like a buddy isn't a friend – it's a data vacuum with plush ears. If you care about AI safety, don't wait for the next cute mascot; wait for the first court injunction.
