You need to change the way you use gmail.
Reprinted on May 26 with a new reference to Gmail’s privacy decisions.
Google Gmail 2 billion users have a critical decision to make. But also Google. And the giant technician can be the most critical. The latest Gmail upgrade gives the Gemini address for all your previous emails and even your stored files. If you leave it. This is the decision to make. As for Google, it sits in a critical decision of a different kind.
“Gmail gets personalized smart answers that incorporate your frame and tone” Google confirmed last week. “The answer plan will sound authentically like you and will match your standard tone as the answers are created by previous emails and driving files.”
But, as I have already warned, “we are still in the early stages of these changes and we still have no idea the dangers of privacy and security.” There is also an awkward disconnection: recent Gmail encryption conflicts with AI upgrades.
What do gmail users really need is Google’s ODE in Apple’s Prick. Which “is a service that allows you to maintain your personal email address private, whether you are creating a new account with an app, sign up for an online newsletter by making a purchase with Apple Pay or send an email to someone you don’t know well.”
For iPhone users, it has been described as “Apple’s best product is not using. “The spam is out of control despite hunting and filtering AI, the problem remains.
Per How to get old This weekend, “I seem to receive emails almost every week that informs me that one of my online accounts was part of a data breach … so using a service like Apple Hide My email is more important than ever.”
This is good for iPhone and Apple Mail, but what about Android and Gmail? There is a solution. First revealed last November, the Android -e -mail armor does the same with HideMyemail. At the end of February, Android principle They revealed details about the new trait after a play Services APK Teardown.
The armored emails “will be part of Google’s automatic network system. Just think of all the apps or screens where Google emerges with the proposed automatic details based on stored passwords and your user names, all of which should be the new home.
When the team “tried to register for Amazon”, they saw that “Gboard’s Smart Autofill Bar did not only suggest the usual email address it usually knows that we use but also a new option used for a shielded electronic choice”. It’s not yet alive and so it didn’t work. Will require integration on the side of the e -mail server if some kind. But it is clearly in development at the end of the stage.
With the titles still circulating after Vpnmentor’s Jeremy Fowler, discovered a data breach of data “184 million connections and passwords“The need for a shielded email that is actually used – and the HideMyemail really used – was never bigger.” I saw thousands of files including emails, usernames, passwords, and URL connections with connection or authorization for accounts. “This included” bank and financial accounts, health platforms and government gates from many countries “.
Covering email addresses makes it more difficult for attackers to report your data and passwords and socially plan the attacks on your name. Allows you to disable compromised email addresses. Combined with powerful, unique passwords and two -factor authentication (2FA), or ideally, it closes the doors in your life now spacious.
One of the most critical weaknesses in e -mail is your address that acts as the main identifier for so many accounts. If this is covered, you probably can’t be detected on sites. But if you don’t use it, none of them matters. So while Google has to decide on its release, when it comes, you need to use new addresses for all the new platforms you use.
With a perfect timing, it comes shortly after the new Google Gmail AI announcements, Android principle Provides a different perspective, with a “survey [that] It shows that gmail users will be happy to sacrifice the characteristics for more privacy … Private life seems to be greater agreement every year, as the growing number of people is not cool with their data becoming a commodity. Proton Mail promotes more privacy than gmail – unlike Google, even the Proton team cannot take a look at your inbox. Therefore, users who realize privacy should want to flock to Proton correspondence, right? “To find out, they were asked their readers.
The results are interesting. “About 73% of you said you would use the Proton Mail instead of Gmail, with more than half people saying they would even pay for it. I suspect this would be very different on a larger basis, but it highlights the current Gmail intensity that came to the forefront of Google that It mimics your style and tone better. ” In the world of privacy protection, this is definitely what you can call a moment of a microphone.
As PC MAG I warned “I gave access to the twins to my gmail and sinks me”. And while this focuses on unexpected results, “Google collects a variety of information when using Gemini, which includes your entire conversation history, the company uses this information to improve its products and train its large linguistic models.
All of this is simply reflecting the identity crisis of e -mail. How are the best APE messaging platforms while remaining an open standard? Can it secure the content while acting as a window for the cloud for AI innovations? And will the upcoming tidal wave of e -“phishing and malware powered by AI powered?
Email needs a review. In the meantime, your account needs a review. Use the new e -mail armor, but also think about the longevity and subsequent vulnerability of the email address you use today. It may be time to open a new account and shift slowly from old to news, leaving the luggage behind.
