Shoshana Weissmann, Sloth Committee Chair 🦥 (@senatorshoshana) reportedYesterday I focused on one app. Today I want to show how much every platform that you wouldn't expect is included in the Illinois "social media" tax will have to pay [see math at bottom, some rough estimates] Gmail: $24,060,000/year Strava: $312,000 Goodreads: $312,000 Tripadvisor: $47,820,000 Proton email (EXEMPT bc nonprofit): $600,000 Math: each takes from est U.S. monthly users, Illinois has 12.6M people, US 350. So x/[monthly US users] * 12.6/350, then following math from bill [in screenshot] For apps like Gmail to collect user data regardless of monthly login (assume people get emails/have app on their phone/privacy policy makes this likely) I assume accordingly. Remember—it's charged NOT per monthly active user but per "the number of Illinois users from whom the social media platform collects data within a month." Full math: Gmail - Montly active US users:130000000, IL users:4680000 ,Cost for IL law/Mo:2005000, Cost for IL law/Year:24060000 Proton - Montly active US users:15000000, IL users:540000 ,Cost for IL law/Mo:50000, Cost for IL law/Year:600000 notes: (VERY rough estimate) Strava - Montly active US users:10000000, IL users:360000 ,Cost for IL law/Mo:26000, Cost for IL law/Year:312000 notes: 50M monthly, 20% in US Goodreads - Montly active US users:10000000, IL users:360000 ,Cost for IL law/Mo:26000, Cost for IL law/Year:312000 notes: (ROUGH ballpark based on avail data, 50M monthly active, 20% in US) TripAdvisor - Montly active US users:240000000, IL users:8640000 ,Cost for IL law/Mo:3985000, Cost for IL law/Year:47820000 notes: 400M montly active US users, US Accounts for 60%ish

Rex Ratio (Official) (@vermontaigne) reported@Google When are you going to permit me to use sorting without having your terrible AI suggestions imposed on my GMail? I don't want my personal emails written by AI. I am a Google One subscriber who's very unhappy about this garbage. This is just abusive.

Yinzer Developer (@YinzerDev) reported@CMAstfalk Oh. My spam is all either scams or companies I have no business with trying to sell me something. A lot of email clients will let you create rules (Gmail will do it at the server level) that will let you define words that, if they show up in the subject (or in the message body, if you want) will automatically delete the message. You can restrict those rules to just the spam folder, if you want... or let the rule run globally. But it does require you to go through your spam and build a list of words that you want to blacklist. And you'll probably have to do it periodically because the spammers will probably use different more creative objectionable language over time, requiring you to update your blacklist with more words. Other than that, I don't know...

The Arcane Verse⚕️ (@Telephantix) reported@FTC I am following up on an official complaint I filed with your office a few years ago. I continue to experience issues with several companies that appear to block or withhold funds through their policies or technology. These companies include Gmail, Cash App, PayPal, and X (formerly Twitter). Cash App is embedded within the X platform, yet after years they still claim I never received funds that should have reached me. I strongly suspect fabricated transaction numbers or records, which I believe constitutes fraud. These actions have resulted in the loss of life-changing sums of money due to what appears to be poor policy enforcement and/or malfeasance. I respectfully request that the FTC investigate these companies for unfair and deceptive practices. Please advise on the status of my prior complaint and what additional documentation or steps are needed to move forward. Thank you for your assistance. Joshua Lowden @Telephantix

Manjul Vic🦅 (@VictorManjul) reported@Kachi_Meta @vian337 @joseph_sorbari The likely cause is the navigation process. When you visit the site: Click on "Get Started, next Start New Registration”. Avoid logging in with Gmail; instead, scroll down and complete the form with your "First Name, Surname, Phone, Email, Password." After submitting the form, an email will be sent to the provided address, check the Spam folder if you don't see it. Open the email and click the verification link. Next, log in using your email and password. Finally, click "START NEW REGISTRATION." This will open a form for the user to complete. Once finished, submit the form to complete the process.

Banning Telegram or whatever comes tomorrow will not stop it. Indian bureaucracy is a monkey chasing its tail

Simon H (@thegreengiant88) reported@54JohnBull @paulding65 Yes all three are. But I wouldn't trust Gmail and WhatsApp at all with anything privacy related. Gmail doesn't particularly hide it but WhatsApp started secure then quietly wound it back, which is sneaky. The only issues you might have are with a few banking apps and contactless

Anuvrat Singh (@anuvrat_singh) reportedFor context on how bad 36/100 actually is: the alert system was also making 2,000 sequential email connections per send cycle. At 1,000 subscribers that's enough to get the whole service rate-limited by Gmail. Not a slow feature. A feature that quietly stops working at scale, with no error, no log, nothing telling you it failed. This is the stuff that's invisible until it isn't.

NIX (@VascoJude) reportedStep 5. Create profile: Fill out your details as it is on your valid ID. Make sure you create a new Gmail to open your account with. Do not use your main email because you might need someone to login into your account at some point and they’ll need access to that email. Keep your privacy. Verify identity: Continue the identity verification on your phone by scanning the QR Code (for people in UK use share code it’s easier and faster. For people in Canada, use driver’s license or provincial permit) Verify skills: Take the communication assessment in any language you’re comfortable with even if it’s Hausa, Igbo, or Yoruba.

Vivi (@vivilinsv) reportedI asked @ManusAI a data security question: now that the reported Meta/Manus deal appears to be in an unwind/disentanglement process, could any Chinese government authority have access to my data if I connect services like Gmail? The answer I got was surprising. Manus said: “Manus is not a Meta company, nor was it ever.” But this seems inconsistent with public information. Manus’s own website says “Manus is now part of Meta,” and its own blog announced that “Manus is joining Meta.” Media has also reported that Meta acquired Manus for around $2B, before Chinese regulators later ordered the deal to be unwound. So the concern is not simply “China” or “ @Meta.” The concern is factual clarity. For a product that asks users to connect Gmail, Google Drive, Slack, and other sensitive workflows, corporate status and data governance cannot be vague. This may just be an AI hallucination or an outdated answer. But for a privacy question, that is exactly the problem. Does anyone know - if that is normal?

kcs (@kaafichillscene) reportedHot take: WWDC 26 was a dud 💩 Apple promised this Siri 2 years ago. Got sued. Settled for $250M. Delivered it now in 2026. But there is actual good stuff in there. Late in classic apple fashion but promising this time. WHAT THEY GOT RIGHT: → Siri finally has cross-app context: it reads your messages, emails, calendar and just acts. No copy-pasting, no switching apps, no explaining yourself twice → On-screen awareness is real. Point at anything, ask Siri about it. On Mac you can right-click a window and ask questions about what's on it. I didn't think I needed this until I saw it → Phone app pulling context from your emails mid-call is the sleeper feature nobody's talking about → Siri remembers conversations now. Finally. This is the assistant Apple was pretending to have since 2022. WHERE THEY LOST THE PLOT: → "Customisable voice sliders for Siri": bro, Samsung has had this since 2019 → AI reply suggestions in Messages: Gmail did this in 2018 and nobody clapped → Tab management in Safari packaged as a breakthrough feature. It's tab management. → Federighi talked about privacy for 10 minutes straight. Cool. Also Google Gemini is now inside your iPhone and Apple is paying them $1B a year for it. That part was a footnote. The product is genuinely good. The showmanship is still peak Apple, half the keynote was dressing up solved problems as inventions. But the cross-app stuff? That's real. That changes how you use your phone. 3rd party applications cannot really let you do much with AI agents on your phone but when you’re apple, you can literally make the phone do anything using AI. They gave a peak behind that curtain at WWDC 2026. You cannot really use the apps of your choice with SIRI right now but surely, that will come. Imagine saying, “hey Siri, it’s time to leave for work” and Siri calling you a cab. In 5 years, you may not be looking at your phone at all. Screens are so old school, voice is the new surface.

Silent_No_More (@silentn0mor3) reported@4nt1p4tt3rn Most people are unprepared to deal with the security risks associated with running a sendmail server. How about a free Protonmail account? I'm sure they're not as private as they claim, but they're a darn sight better than Gmail. My challenge has just been undertaking the grunt work of transitioning email addresses - in all the sites and services that I depend on. Although it would likely free me up from Spam which is 95% of the email I get daily. I've tried starting this before only to fizzle out.
