Lauren WeinsteinThe vast majority of fake billing emails (trying to get you to call their "support center" where they will endeavor to scam you) appear to come from <a href="https://mastodon.laurenweinstein.org/tags/Gmail" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Gmail</a>. These typically carry various signals that <a href="https://mastodon.laurenweinstein.org/tags/Google" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Google</a> could use to block them from being sent to non-Gmail addresses, but they don't bother.

Royce WilliamsIn the official Gmail client for Android, even when "Open web links in Gmail" is disabled, if I click on a link in an email, it redirects to google.com before following the link.Is this an aspect of Advanced Protection?

Brian Greenberg :verified:🤖 Gemini’s Gmail summaries were just caught parroting phishing scams. A security researcher embedded hidden prompts in email text (w/ white font, zero size) to make Gemini falsely claim the user's Gmail password was compromised and suggest calling a fake Google number. It's patched now, but the bigger issue remains: AI tools that interpret or summarize content can be manipulated just like humans. Attackers know this and will keep probing for prompt injection weaknesses.TL;DR ⚠️ Invisible prompts misled Gemini 📩 AI summaries spoofed Gmail alerts 🔍 Prompt injection worked cleanly 🔐 Google patched, but risk remains<a href="https://www.pcmag.com/news/google-gemini-bug-turns-gmail-summaries-into-phishing-attack" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.pcmag.com/news/google-gemini-bug-turns-gmail-summaries-into-phishing-attack</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/cybersecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#cybersecurity</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/promptinjection" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#promptinjection</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/AIrisks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AIrisks</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Gmail" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Gmail</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/security" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#security</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/privacy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#privacy</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/cloud" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#cloud</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/infosec" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#infosec</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AI</a>

Dr PenThe first time Ive seen this kind of message in Gmail. 'Smart' features have existed for years, only Gemini is 'new'. I dont want Gemini. Ive never used smart features bc they are dumb. I dont want restaurant recs in my email account, frankly the list in img 2 is struggling to find reasons. Basically, they want all your emails for Gemini training and they're gonna do that whether we like it or not!<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/enshittification" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#enshittification</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/google" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#google</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/degoogle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#degoogle</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/gmail" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#gmail</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/academia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#academia</a>

Lauren WeinsteinWARNING: <a href="https://mastodon.laurenweinstein.org/tags/GOOGLE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#GOOGLE</a> IS TRYING TO TRICK YOU INTO USING GEMINI AI AND FEEDING GEMINI YOUR DATA IN GMAIL AND OTHER APPS!What Google is now doing should be ILLEGAL. PERIOD. For the first time I can recall in history of using Gmail, it just now popped a modal dialogue box -- DEMANDING that I choose whether or not I wanted "Smart Features" turned on -- which when you read the verbiage mostly means goddamned Gemini AI AND if you enable this you're giving Google permission to use your data to "improve" this horrifically invasive, inept, and misinformation spewing tech that steals data from websites for its own use without permission of those sites. DON'T LET IT SUCK IN YOUR EMAIL AS WELL!There was no way I could find to exit the modal window without choosing YES or NO, which means my existing selection to NOT use Gmail Smart Features (long my preference) was NOT being honored. After saying NO to this disgusting query by Google, I was pushed to ANOTHER page where I was forced to choose again about "smart features" in "other" Google apps. I chose NO again and finally was permitted to escape this trap.Note that while you can fairly easily check to make sure "smart features" are turned off in Gmail settings, I offhand don't have a clue as to how to find the similar settings in other Google apps that may have been affected by this absolutely disrespectful forced dialogue, as Google keeps trying to ram Gemini AI down our throats.ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
