Meta’s Muse now tells its shopping agent “Do not search Amazon” after Amazon blocked the agent from its store in September

Meta added lines to Muse’s shopping skill telling the agent “Do not search Amazon” and to “Leave out Amazon unless the user asks for it,” Marketplace Pulse founder Juozas Kaziukėnas posted on LinkedIn. The change doesn’t take anything away from users, because Amazon already blocked Muse from its store in September after saying Meta never asked permission for the agent to shop there. Kaziukėnas thinks Meta added the instructions because Muse kept trying to look for products on Amazon when new users asked it to shop.
