This completely changes your email account — what to know.
Google’s 2 billion Gmail users have a critical decision to make. But so does Google. And the tech giant’s might be the more critical. Gmail’s latest upgrade gives Gemini free reign over all your past emails and even your stored files. If you let it. That’s the decision you need to make. As for Google, it’s sitting on a critical decision of a different kind.confirmed last week.
That’s fine for iPhone and Apple Mail, but what about Android and Gmail? There is a solution. First revealed last November, Android’sShielded Emails “will be part of Google’s Autofill system. Just think of all the apps or screens where Google pops up with its suggested autofill details based on your saved passwords and usernames; all of these should be the new home for Shielded Email.”
When the team “tried to sign up for Amazon,” they saw that “Gboard’s smart autofill bar not only suggested the usual email address it knows we usually use but also a new Use Shielded Email option.” It’s not yet live and so didn’t work. It will require email server-side integration if some kind. But it’s clearly in late-stage development.,” the need for Shielded Email that’s actually used — and HideMyEmail that’s actually used — has never been greater.
Masking email addresses makes it more difficult for attackers to cross-reference your data and passwords and to socially engineer attacks in your name. It lets you turn off compromised email addresses. In tandem with strong, unique passwords and two-factor authentication , or ideally passkeys, it shuts doors into your life now wide open.
One of the most critical weaknesses in email is your address acting as the primary identifier for so many accounts. If this is masked you likely cannot be tracked across sites. But if you’re not using it, none of that matters. So while Google must decide on its release, when it comes you should use new addresses for all new platforms you use.
