But we have regulation and complaince for consumer secrets? That's not a comparable example.

The difference is that if openai gave you a product and it leaked a million peoples bank passwords it would destroy the entire company.

Again until a big tech product can bring that to a clean user experience we're not there yet. Even the most zealot openclaw users are not hooking their bank accounts into the AI yet. I'm sure they exist but I've not seen them.

Also every big tech computer use product actively screams for you not to give their agents secrets.

They absolutely do but similarly people absolutely don't wear those seatbelts despite being a great idea! As far as not hooking things into your bank account, RobinHood has an MCP, what do you think that's gonna be used for?
