  If you ever get a mail from a contact you know and it's in relation to gainrep, do not interact or login using your Gmail

  Comparisons of Free Trial Abuse Prevention Services If you're running a SaaS with a free trial or focusing on PLG, authentication and abuse prevention are not the same problem. - WorkOS: If you're already using WorkOS, WorkOS Radar is probably the first thing I'd look at. For a WorkOS stack, WorkOS AuthKit + Radar makes the most sense. You don't need to bolt another authentication system onto your app just to get abuse signals. - Auth0, Supabase Auth, Better Auth: These are primarily identity/authentication platforms. Integrating only these can't prevent free trial abuse. - Custom: Like the previous options, you need a custom way to prevent free trial abuse. Most free trial abuse methods involve disposable emails, Google dot variations, Google/Gmail domain variations, and plus addressing. That's why even when you block bots via Cloudflare Turnstile or CAPTCHA, you can still get these abusers. The industry standards: - Block free trial abuse using lists hosted on GitHub: This is a pain in the ***. If you don't want to pay money, you can use a service that offers a generous free tier. - WorkOS Radar: This is mainly used at the enterprise level. They focus more on WorkOS-related integrations rather than integrations with other providers. - ZeroBounce, NeverBounce, MillionVerifier, DeBounce: These are mainly used to clean/validate emails. There are 100s of alternatives, and most are similar with minor differences. They all have disposable email checking APIs. - UserCheck: This is also an email validation API, but they focus on blocking fake email addresses. It's better than a basic email verification API. - Autheona: This is in the same category as WorkOS Radar and UserCheck, but with more features. It also focuses on fake user detection and is growing with a real user base. Now, pricing: - WorkOS Radar: First 1,000 checks free, then $100 per 50 checks. No application-specific logic changes. Easy to integrate and manage. - ZeroBounce: 100 free validations in the free tier, then pay-as-you-go, starting at 2,000 for $39, and so on. - NeverBounce: No free trial or use case, $8 per 1,000 checks. - UserCheck: 1,000 API requests per month in the free plan. The rule-based engine is not included in the free plan, and you can get up to 1 request per second. - Autheona: 3,000 checks per month, with the rule-based policy engine included. Standard API request rate limitations apply, similar to paid plans. Now, use cases: - WorkOS Radar: Block disposable emails, plus addressing, and Google dot variations. - ZeroBounce, NeverBounce, etc.: Block disposable emails. - UserCheck: Block disposable emails, plus addressing, and Google dot variations; detect public emails; email suggestions; syntax validation; role detection. - Autheona: Everything included in UserCheck, plus business/free/government email identification, deliverability checks, fraud patterns, punycode and mixed-script checks, VPN detection, and bot detection (not necessary if you already use CAPTCHA, Cloudflare, etc.). Final decision from me: - Use WorkOS Radar if you're already in the WorkOS ecosystem. It's harder to integrate with other auth providers. - Use ZeroBounce-like APIs if you need basic disposable email checks. They're not as good if you need a better free tier. - Use UserCheck if you only need email-related validation and want to stay within the free plan. - Use Autheona if you need the most generous free tier available with a custom policy engine. All services take a maximum of a few hours to integrate and test. Both UserCheck and Autheona have a similar approach: integrate once and never touch the code again.

  Another Gmail story… and this is exactly why losing access to one account can become a much bigger problem than people realize. 😳 Someone says Google had been warning his mother that her account would be deleted because she was apparently not old enough to have an unsupervised Google account. There was just one strange problem: She’s an adult and had been using the account for years. According to her son, she even submitted identification to prove her age, but it was rejected. And now the account has been disabled. Suddenly it isn’t only Gmail she can’t access. YouTube and other Google services connected to the same account are affected too. They’re now stuck trying to complete the verification process, while apparently being sent back into the same login loop. We still don’t know exactly what caused Google to classify the account this way, so I wouldn’t automatically blame Google or call it a technical error. But the situation highlights something I’ve been thinking about more and more with these stories: One email account isn’t just an email account anymore. It can be connected to years of emails, photos, subscriptions, purchases, contacts, accounts and other services. And when access to that one account suddenly disappears… you realize just how much of your digital life was depending on it.

  Does anyone else remember @skiffprivacy? It's such an interesting thing that happened to them and it makes me wonder about the business model of privacy enhancing technology. As far as I understand, they got acquired by @NotionHQ - They originally came on board to Handle Notion email and then I think Notion's AI agent ended up meaning that users weren't even logging into their emails. Notion mail was a polished Gmail client with AI labelling (no E2EE) but now I think it has or will be shut down as more than half o fNotion Mail users had already handed email to Notion's AI agents and never opened the inbox.

  @IamAroke Sometimes it's just about the throughput. S3 goes down, your whole enterprise goes down. Now imagine you are an anti-virus company and those stored files are pending email attachments waiting to be scanned before Gmail or whatever will actually allow it through.

  Because the same thing already started on the read side Gemini now summarizes marketing emails inside Gmail Gmail carries 25% to 33% of all email opens So a growing share of your list gets the gist of your send without ever arriving at it One 60k newsletter watched open rates fall from 45% to 25% with zero changes on their end Here's the shape of the problem:

  @Arcane_Aii The only way to lock down gmail is by erasing it. Period. And even than all your emails have already been scanned into Gemini so yeah take that for what it’s worth.

  We pushed more budget into Performance Max and 97% of the spend walked straight into Gmail. ROAS went to 0.73x. This is an ecommerce account we've been scaling. The logic was ordinary - PMax was working, so give it more room. What we didn't account for is that PMax doesn't hold its channel mix steady when you change the budget. It re-solves. And the cheapest inventory it can find is almost never Search. We pulled the budget back down. The mix returned to roughly 90% Search. Performance recovered. Same campaign. Same creative. Same audience signals. The only variable was how much money we handed it. The branded PMax campaign in the same account is doing 5.54x, with 98.5% of its spend on Search. It's not that PMax is broken. It's that PMax on branded terms has nowhere else to go, and PMax on non-brand has everywhere else to go. So we're restructuring. Search and Shopping carry brand and non-brand. Demand Gen takes prospecting, not because it performs better out of the gate, but because it lets us choose placements. Discover, Gmail, YouTube, in-feed, on purpose instead of by accident. We're stepping the branded PMax down gradually rather than killing it, to see how much volume Shopping absorbs. If you're scaling PMax right now, pull the channel-level spend breakdown before and after your last budget increase. Not the ROAS. The mix. Most people never look, because PMax doesn't ask you to. What does your PMax channel split actually look like this month?
