"In researching a hiccup with performance, he stumbled across a file where the OpenClaw agent had downloaded all of his WhatsApp messages and stored them in plain, unencrypted text on his computer. Not just the work-related messages it was given explicit access to, but all of them, his personal messages too."

Now the agent can do the same thing, but it's in a container and it's doing it with a Rust binary, so you know it's safe. /s

Edit: It's not Rust.

Definitely a sign of the times that (pre-edit) I thought, "oh this person's thinking of the wrong claw, IronClaw is the Rust one"

Not necessarily? You can just as easily design an agent that only has access to one chat.
