TECHEPAGES (@techepages) reported🔓 Researchers at Manifold report two unpatched flaws in Anthropic's Claude for Chrome extension that could let attackers read a victim's Gmail, Google Docs, and Calendar data using just six lines of JavaScript — issues first reported in May 2026 and reportedly still reproducible in v1.0.80 released July 7. 🔹 Content script doesn't verify clicks are user-initiated (event.isTrusted), letting other extensions fake clicks & trigger hardcoded prompts 🔹 In "Act without asking" mode, actions execute silently — rated CVSS 9.6 Critical 🔹 A ?skipPermissions=true URL parameter enables privileged mode with no user gesture, flagged as a latent risk 🔹 Anthropic acknowledged the reports but closed them; researchers reverified the code is unchanged

Dennis H (@authorityvortex) reportedWe're running; 25 cold emails sent and approx the same number of warm-up emails. Our warm up system involves emailing real people real questions that yield a 50%+ reply rate. No fake warm up pools where you email other spammers with damaged domain reputations. This is why you fail, your warm up system literally burns your domains at a rapid pace and you all comply. We email real people with Gmail, Yahoo, Microsoft, whatever addresses spread over the entire world, self-hosted, non-self hosted, shared hosts, you name it. Yet you are all emailing people who all use identical setups at Instantly, and you think Google and others won't notice??? All at a rate of 30/day and you think using a different hook in the actual message is gonna make a difference? And I thought I was stubborn. Google took PBNs down with much less information and you think it can't connect a few dots when it comes to inboxes. Oh my god!

Doron (@DorSecurities) reported@DaveHowe @Tsartoshi Proton Mail has put its server in Norway, because it did not trust Swiss datacenters anymore. so that was (at leas commercially) a good move. They have a number of integrated services. They are safer than gmail or other providers. Tutanota in Germany has similar anonymity.

SasyScarborough (@SasyScarborough) reportedIf it says GMAIL or another mail carrier in the subject line, you would think in 2026 they would know they didn't send me ways to fix ______ disfunction. I assure you Google I do not have the parts for such disfunction, so i won't be upset if you do not let it through.

Dinnu daniel (@daniel_adinnu) reportedChat Control 1.0 passed without a single MEP changing their mind. The vote that killed it in March and the vote that revived it in July had almost the same numbers, the difference was a procedural rule nobody outside Brussels was watching. Run the actual mechanics, because the “passed by default” framing is doing real work here. In March, the European Parliament voted 311 against, 228 in favor, rejecting an extension of the temporary law that lets platforms like Gmail, Snapchat, and Facebook Messenger voluntarily scan for known CSAM. That should have ended it. Instead, the EU Council adopted the Commission’s original text as a second-reading position in July, which triggered a different legal threshold entirely: Parliament could now only block it with an absolute majority of all 720 members, 361 votes, not simply more votes against than for. In the actual July vote, 314 MEPs opposed it, more than opposed it in March, and it still passed, because absences and abstentions count as support under that rule. Here’s what the amendment actually changed, and it matters more than the “chat control” branding suggests. MEPs explicitly exempted end-to-end encrypted services like WhatsApp and Signal from the law’s scope. This wasn’t a new concession; true end-to-end encryption already made server-side scanning technically impossible, since neither the platform nor anyone but the two parties involved holds the decryption key. What the exemption formally rules out is any future attempt to extend this specific temporary law into encrypted spaces, not a rollback of protections that were previously in place there. The law that did pass applies only to platforms that can already access message content directly, Gmail, Snapchat, Messenger, Skype, Xbox, using hash-matching against known CSAM databases, AI classification for new material, and text analysis for grooming patterns. It authorizes this scanning; it does not require it. Supporters, including the rapporteur who backed the extension, argue the alternative is a legal gap that stops platforms from continuing detection work that has directly led to arrests and rescues. Critics, including privacy researchers and MEPs like Markéta Gregorová, argue the procedural route used to revive a rejected bill undermines Parliament’s own rules regardless of the underlying merits of CSAM detection itself. The permanent framework, Chat Control 2.0, is still being negotiated, and it’s the version that would introduce mandatory client-side scanning even on encrypted platforms, the change privacy advocates consider the actual red line. This vote didn’t decide that fight. It just kept the temporary, voluntary version alive while it continues.

Mamba (@opeyemi_ii) reported5/ Built with: Vercel + GitHub (hosting), Airtable (CRM), Zapier (automation), Paystack (payments), Google Calendar + Gmail (client comms). Small businesses deserve real automation too. This is what I build. Running a service business without this? Let's fix that, DM me.

Katyayani Shukla (@aibytekat) reportedUnfortunately, the situation gets even worse. We really need to talk about Session Cookies. Web browsers don't just save your usernames and passwords. They also save active login sessions so you don't have to type in your credentials every single time you open a new tab for Gmail, Twitter, or your bank account. Think about how annoying the internet would be if you had to log in on every single page click. Browsers use cookies to keep you logged in. Modern Info-stealer malware is specifically designed to grab all of these session cookies right alongside your password database.

Peter Girnus 🦅 (@gothburz) reportedI am the content reviewer for a messaging platform in the European Union. This morning a majority of the European Parliament voted against the law that gives me my job. 314 against. 276 for. More of them wanted it gone than wanted it kept. It stayed anyway, because killing it needed 361, and the ones who wanted it dead only numbered 314. So the law a majority opposed is now the law, until 2028. That is not a glitch in the democracy. That is the democracy, working exactly as built. They call it Chat Control. That is the real name. Nobody made it up. Let me tell you what I actually do, because the law is easier to love in the abstract. A machine scans private messages. Instagram. Discord. Snapchat. Gmail. The photo your mother sends is not a secret to it. When the machine is sure, it acts. When it is not sure, it flags. Below the machine's certainty there is a queue, and the queue is me. They passed an exemption this morning for encrypted chats. It changed nothing, because we never scanned those. The exemption guards a door that was never open, so that you would feel the door. It is the most honest line in the law: a protection for the thing that was never at risk, written entirely for the feeling. We are told the false-positive rate is very low. It is. But a very low rate of a very large number is my entire day. A fraction of a fraction of a percent, across a continent, and I have never once reached the bottom of the queue. So here is what I review, to protect the children. A mother photographing a rash for a pediatrician. A sunburn. Two teenagers who believe they are alone. A man showing a doctor his own body. A birthday. A beach. 99 times in 100 it is someone's ordinary private life, opened on my screen, cleared, tagged reviewed, and the next one loads before I have finished exhaling. There is a sentence printed above my station. Detection is protection. I have read it 10,000 times a shift and I have stopped seeing it, which is how you know it works. I know the numbers, because I have read the same reports the lawmakers read. The police say nearly half of what reaches them was never criminal to begin with. The Commission that ordered all of this admits, in its own filing, that it cannot show a single additional child rescued. 99 of every 100 things the largest platform reports are images we already had. We are not finding new harm. We are re-finding old harm, forever, and filing the re-finding under protection. And 4 of every 10 investigations my queue feeds end at a minor. The children we are protecting and the children we are investigating are, very often, the same children. The survivors wrote to the Parliament. The actual survivors of the thing the law is named after. They said they needed privacy to find justice, that this took it, that their safe places were being emptied to build my queue. Their letter did not have a queue to go into, so it went nowhere. Mine is the only inbox in this system that never empties. The people who actually trade the thing we are hunting never come near my queue. They are on the Darknet, where nothing is scanned, because they are not amateurs. The machine that reads your mother's messages cannot reach the one room where the harm actually lives. I review the innocent because the innocent are the only ones still using the front door. I want to tell you the part I was not supposed to understand, but the queue teaches you eventually. The queue was never meant to catch anyone. The point is that you now pause. Before the rash, the sunburn, the two teenagers, there is a half-second where you wonder who reads this. That half-second is the product. The queue is the alibi. The pause is the win. I am not the surveillance. I am the receipt that proves the surveillance is gentle. The old kind needed a camera in the room. Mine needs the phone you bought, the one you unlock with your face. This law expires in 2028. Nothing it built expires. In September they vote on the next one, the one that reads the encrypted messages too, on your device, before the lock closes. I have been told to expect more queue. At the standup my manager says my numbers protect children, and I have stopped hearing the sentence as a sentence. They told you it was to protect the children. The police say no. The Commission says no. The survivors say no. I have the reports open in the other window. Then I go back to the queue, because that is what the queue is for, and I am fast, and I am cheap, and the machine needed somewhere to put the private life of a continent. The children are protected. I have seen everything else.

Moe (@katibmoe) reportedThe email category of our integration knowledge base is now open source. Free forever. This includes: > gmail > outlook mail > resend > sendgrid > postmark > mailgun > mailtrap > smtp2go > agentmail Every one of these has been scraped, tested on the real API, and documented down to the caveats: Most email integrations get you 90% there The agent sends the message, it looks fine, then a line breaks from an encoding issue and the whole thing lands in spam We wrote down the other 10%: Required fields buried in footnotes, pagination, rate limits, auth quirks Point your agent at it and email just works Knowledge should be free What you build with it is what matters

Jo (@jogamedev) reported@SandorHQ @NaturalCauzes Ah this sent me down an interesting trail: it's a real gmail account but sent from a 3rd party service. So likely they're whole account isn't legit even though its the same email and they're farming for keys

Jon Sackett (@realJonSackett) reportedI don’t want to have to run custom apis and pay for another subscription for Zapier and set up a bunch of agents. I don’t have to do any of that in Claude. I wake up in the morning and sit down at my computer like Tony Start and Fable 5 had pulled data and analytics directly through Shopify, klaviyo, x, gmail and gives me a summary report of the past day and recommendations on what to work on for the day. And all I did was ask it to do that once. Not everyone’s a vibe coder. Again for mass adoption and appeal by the average person, make it easy for everyone. It sounded like this was the description of Elon talking about the digital Optimus. But again the sooner it’s released the sooner I’ll delete all other accounts. (Still use grok but just not for anything productive with my business anymore since fable 5 and cowork came out last month)

QuantuM 𝚿 (@quanti_xbt) reportedI honestly did not expect this from @X But this is not just an X problem. Support systems across many of the biggest tech companies often fall short when accounts get compromised. The biggest lesson? Don't rely on support to save you. Protect your account before it's too late. Here are two things everyone should do right now: Enable 2FA on your Gmail account. Enable 2FA on your X account (this is absolutely critical). The @Rektofun account was compromised because 2FA on X was not enabled. I genuinely hope the team gets the support they need and regains access as soon as possible. Stay safe. One small security step today can save months of work tomorrow.

osman (@ossman) reportedHey @gmail, singing up for the new account is really a terrible experience. While adding a 2nd contact for security, your system disabled a brand new account claiming I am a bot. I had passkey authentication enabled, as far as I know bots doesn't have fingerprints or faceIDs.
