  Your open rate isn't real anymore. Apple and Gmail are the ones making the number up, not you. Apple loads your email the second it lands. Before anyone reads it. That's about half of all "opens" you see. Not real people, just Apple's computers. Gmail does something different. It loads the pictures in your email through its own system, so an "open" a few seconds after you hit send is usually just Gmail, not a real person. And once it saves that picture, a real second read often doesn't even show up. Now both companies made it worse. Apple's AI writes a short summary of your email right in the inbox. People read that and never open the real email. Gmail does the same thing now. Its AI sums up the whole email thread, so the "open" never even happens. Your click rate isn't safe either. Bots click your links millions of times a day. The real number can be off by half. And Apple's newest update now removes the tracking info from links people click in Mail, so even that data is getting worse. Three numbers broken. Two big email companies making it worse every year. What's still real are replies, sales and money made per subscriber.

  @MarioBojic Is the statement of grok true? It’s passed today, yeah. The European Parliament has extended the temporary regulation (Chat Control 1.0) until April 2028. It was a weird vote — 314 against, 276 for — but because they needed an absolute majority of 361 to block it, it went through. How it works: it remains voluntary and server-side. It only applies to apps where the provider can already read the messages anyway — think Instagram DMs, Messenger, Gmail, Snapchat, Discord. They do hash-matching on known CSAM and some AI for new stuff. Real end-to-end encrypted chats (like Signal, or the default E2EE in WhatsApp) are explicitly excluded. They can’t and aren’t allowed to scan those. The big mandatory version with possible client-side scanning on your phone, that fight is still ongoing.

  @TouhouEnjoyer_ I think it depends on how you're being "hit on" if it's a simple "can I get your number/gmail" and leaving it at that, I don't see much reason to complain. But if it's the kind of "hit on" where someone was folloing them around for a while and wouldn't stop that's an an issue.

  I 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.

  @NewMexicoDOJ Two important excel spreadsheets missing from my email this week that both were sent to my email last week really unsettled my mind and drives me nuts. They were both saved to my desktop which I modified them afterwards. They are not in Outlook or my deleted folder or are they my desktop or my recycling bin. I have never permanently deleted a file on Outlook or my Desktop since I started here. So, how do they just both disappear? They were both very important! It reminds me of my Gmail account where emails would be invisible then reappear all of which regarding my weekly floating schedule. I was late or missed work a few times from schedules that were clearly altered or missing. It got a point where I printed them from the work computers and would cross reference them! Don't tell me its me as those issues never existed with me my entire life! I am done contacting IT as its a bad look for my local division as they cannot solve these problems and its only making me look like a lunatic. The resources being deployed come from the highest level of digital and networking capabilities and is well outside their range or capability due to one set of technologies versus another one. Thats my opinion anyways of why they have yet to be identified. This is what caused me to burn a gasket earlier and go on another posting tirade!

  My Gmail account was hacked, and I have been unable to recover it. The hacker changed the recovery email address from my original one to another email address. I tried to sign in using my old email “I couldn’t access it.” #YouTube

  If Your Gmail Isn't Secure, Your Bank Account Could Be at Risk. Your Gmail is connected to your banking apps, UPI accounts, social media, shopping websites and many other online services. If cyber criminals gain access to your Gmail, they may be able to reset passwords, intercept important emails and take control of other accounts linked to it. That's why securing your Gmail is one of the most important steps in protecting your digital life. Use a strong, unique password, enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA), keep your recovery email and phone number updated, and review your login activity regularly. Your Gmail is more than an email account. It's the key to your digital identity. Protect it before someone else does.

  So yeah, never ******* using Google or Gmail ever again. These ghouls have zero problem handing over all of your private information to anyone. 🖕

  Active infostealer + crypto clipper campaign run by a Turkish-speaking operator. Live since at least 23 June 2026, still being iterated (last payload push 6 July). The entire toolkit is sitting in an open directory on a DigitalOcean node (46[.]101[.]111[.]120:8080, WsgiDAV, anonymous read-write). Version-stamped backups and installer output strings show the operator moving from an early build to v5 in under two weeks. This is a maintained, actively developed operation, not a commodity dropper. Delivery. Primary vector is a macro-enabled Word doc (Q1 Quarterly Report 2025.docm) that fires on open, XOR-decodes a URL, and pulls a batch script into %TEMP% under an obfuscated filename. That chains to a PowerShell installer. The operator is hedging delivery: a .pdf.lnk, a zipped variant, an .hta, and a .vbs loader all sit in the same directory. Install and evasion. The installer drops a Python payload plus a full bundled runtime into %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Themes\Cache\, a path chosen to blend with legitimate Windows infra. Before anything runs it carves out Defender exclusions for the drop dir, %TEMP%, and the Python binaries, then applies two in-memory patches: AMSI (AmsiScanBuffer forced to return E_INVALIDARG) and ETW (EtwEventWrite stubbed to a bare return). With ETW silenced, Sysmon, Defender ETW consumers, and any EDR relying on event tracing go blind to what follows. The payload itself is layered (Base64, then XOR against a rolling SHA-256 digest, then marshalled bytecode run in memory). Everything runs at user level, no elevation. What it steals. Chrome saved credentials and cards, decrypted via the standard DPAPI plus AES-GCM path, alongside a file inventory walked across the user profile. Exfil ships to the C2 over HTTPS as a JSON POST, with a Gmail SMTP fallback that sends the same data as an HTML attachment if the primary channel fails. Crypto clipper. Monitors the clipboard and silently swaps copied wallet addresses for the operator's before you paste, across eight coins. If you copy-pasted a crypto address on a suspect host in the last two weeks, verify it before trusting it. Persistence is the difficult part. Five layers running at once: a Run key, a Startup script, two scheduled tasks (one every five minutes, one on a 22-hour cycle), and a WMI event subscription that fires a couple of minutes after each boot. A watchdog checks every five minutes whether the process is alive and holding its outbound connection, and re-downloads and restarts it if not. The maintenance task goes further and rebuilds any missing layer from scratch. Pull three of five and reboot, and you are reinfected. Remediation means isolating the host and taking out all five together. Attribution. Indicators point consistently to a Turkish-speaking operator: the C2 control panel is served in Turkish and the SMTP exfil account follows a recognizable Turkish naming pattern. DuckDNS dynamic DNS, a single DigitalOcean node, and no infrastructure diversification profile a solo or small-team actor. No espionage indicators; this is straightforward credential, card, and crypto theft. IOCs Payload server: 46[.]101[.]111[.]120:8080 (DigitalOcean, WsgiDAV, anon read-write) C2: gogettate[.]duckdns[.]org, ports 443 and 4444 Drop path: %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Themes\Cache\ Persistence: ThemeSvcHelper (Run key), ThemeSvc.vbs (Startup), ThemeSvcCheck / ThemeSvcMaint (tasks), ThemeEvtFlt / ThemeEvtCns (WMI, root\subscription) YARA string: WinMgmt2024Init

  ALWAYS follow up on your emails if you don't hear back. Gmail spam filters are extremely aggressive. If you have lower than expected inbox placement despite having a good domain reputation or just an individual, make it a habit to send follow-up emails. Just a single follow-up on a thread can bump you into the inbox. Which is how I discovered the problem in the first place.

  You connect Gmail to an agent and it quietly gets all ~30 tools that server exposes. Most agents need one or two. So it walks around holding access it never touches. Every unused tool is one more way to pick wrong, one more thing you trust on every run.

  The perfect missed revenue agent every founder should build: Trigger: Every day at 6 PM Data source: Gmail, CRM, Stripe, invoices, support tickets AI step: Find unpaid invoices, stale leads, failed payments, and ignored follow-ups Human approval: Review before sending any message Action: Draft follow-ups, create tasks, update deal status Error alert: Flag missing data or failed syncs Log everything: Track what was checked and what changed Most revenue leaks are not strategy problems. They are follow-up problems.
