Excuse me? Unix has been multiuser since the beginning. And networked for almost all of that time. Dozens or hundreds of users shared those early systems and user/group permissions kept all their data separate unless deliberately shared.

AI agents should be thought of as another person sharing your computer. They should operate as a separate user identity. If you don't want them to see something, don't give them permission.
