  Paola Estefania of Better Auth spent 40 minutes at the AI Engineer World's Fair explaining why your AI agents should never act with your credentials, and made it clearer than any agent security guide I've read. This is what she walked through: 1. Give agents authority, not your credentials. Most people connect an agent to their Gmail and calendar with their own token, so it acts as them. "We need to stop giving our credentials to our agents. We need to give them authority. Stop saying pretend to be me. Start saying act for me within these limits." That one reframing, credentials to authority, is the whole protocol in a sentence. 2. Treat an agent like a new hire, not the CEO. She frames access as an org-chart question: what you hand a new employee versus what you would never hand over. "You never give someone the CEO's credentials and say go read the email. Anything could happen. With agents, that is exactly what we do." An agent should get a scoped badge of its own, the way a new hire does. 3. Capabilities beat scopes. Today you grant a broad OAuth scope like read access to an entire inbox. "A scope like read is a big thing, nothing specific. A capability is capped down. I can determine exactly what action an agent can do." That shrinks the blast radius from the whole inbox to one named action. 4. Agents need a phone book to find what they can do. Right now you wire each tool to an agent by hand, with no automatic way for it to learn what it is allowed to do. "The directory is like a phone book for the agent. Your intent gets matched to the capabilities it can actually call." Discovery becomes a lookup instead of a wiring job you maintain forever. 5. Give every agent its own identity and private key. The fix for traceability is cryptographic: each agent signs its own tokens. "Each agent gets its own private key attached to its identity. Now Gmail does not just see a user. It sees this specific agent acting on my behalf." The agent stops hiding behind you and becomes a principal you can name. 6. If you can identify an agent, you can fire it. Identity is what lets you hold an agent accountable after something goes wrong. "If the agent does something wrong, you can fire it. You revoke that one identity. Today you have to disconnect the whole thing." Revocation goes from nuking every integration to firing one bad actor. That's the identity layer for agents. Once you are wiring several of them together, one loop isn't enough, and that's graph engineering. Guide below.

  The amount of SPAMMERS using @gmail is really getting a PITFA because I can't block the whole Domain via my SPAM filter rules. @Google really need to start dealing with this issue. Surely with all their data mining & monitoring of email content it can't be hard for them.

  @james406 Have you tried launching Gmail in Chrome? That should fix it.

  @guyrleech Hundrends of emails daily. Unsubscribe is pointless clicking this is spam is pointless. I dont have the time to read all that email. I aware they sell advertising to "active gmail" because I'll log in and get 2 or 3 emails during that login time. I'm done.

  My friend lost his Google account today. Then his entire digital life started disappearing. At first, he thought it was just Gmail. He was wrong. Years of emails. Google Drive. Photos. Calendar. YouTube. He had also used Google to sign in to X, LinkedIn, and dozens of other apps and websites. In a matter of minutes, he lost access to almost everything tied to that account. Watching him realize how much of his life depended on a single login was honestly terrifying. It made me wonder... Have we made a huge mistake by trusting one company with our entire digital lives? Or is that simply the price of convenience?

  I don't particularly like Google, it's has been my third choice search engine for close to a decade, but i'll be sad if Gmail goes to ****. I've used it for over 20 years and never had an issue. Probably the most reliable service i've ever used.

  I think Alphabet ($GOOGL) can double again within 1–2 years. Why? - Stock is down 20% from its high because investors dislike its ~$200B AI investment. - Q2’26 Revenue grew 24% YoY vs 13% for the S&P 500. - Google Cloud grew 82% YoY, with profit more than tripling. - Open weight AI (Kimi K3, etc.) should increase demand for Google Cloud. - AI is being integrated across Search, YouTube, Gmail, Android, Chrome and Maps. I modeled three scenarios: • Worst case: $241 (-24%) • Base case: $554 (+73%) • Best case: $771 (+141%) The market is pricing AI investment as a risk. I see it as the reason to buy. Not investment advice. What do you think?

  @comet_wanderer @thisisdobleu I tried to register using gmail and FB but unfortunately it's the same issue, we need to link the account to a Thai phone number

  @Jiminy_Kirket Yep, same. Just about everything logs me out non stop now from Google. People say 'check the settings' but i'm more concerned they're rotating accounts like mad due to undisclosed issues. On my personal gmail I've never tweaked the settings, for example.

  @iMxrco @gmail Even worse when I need to reference an email for work related purposes and I just can’t find the convo. But now I categorize everything to lessen this issue.
