Good morning to readers; Kyiv remains in Ukrainian hands.
#Zelenskyy said a deal with #Russia is pointless w/o #security #guarantees.
Here’s why: #Kyiv made this mistake before.
#Moscow broke ceasefire after #Minsk agreements. International lawyer Oleksandr watched it all unfold.
New from Francesca D'Annunzio: Under Governor Greg Abbott's multi-billion dollar border security bonanza, Operation Lone Star, the Rio Grande no longer holds back law enforcement efforts.

We're pleased to announce that #Hollo has been included in the Nivenly Fediverse Security Fund program!
The @nivenly Foundation has launched a security bounty fund to support contributors who identify and help fix #security vulnerabilities in popular #fediverse software. Both Hollo and @fedify are among the selected projects that meet their responsible security disclosure requirements.
This program will run from April–September 2025, with bounties of $250–$500 USD for high and critical security vulnerabilities.
We're honored to be recognized alongside other established fediverse projects like Mastodon, Misskey, and Lemmy. This further encourages our commitment to maintaining strong security practices.
If you're interested in contributing to Hollo's security, please follow our responsible disclosure process outlined in our SECURITY.md file.

New Privacy Guides article 🔐
by me:
If you are an Apple user looking for a free, open-source, and privacy-focused password manager, KeePassium is a fantastic option.
KeePassium offers synchronization options, but allows you to keep your password database offline by default.
It's also KeePass-compatible, which makes migrating from or to any other KeePass-compatible apps easy.

That's right we stop using #cell_phones the day 📥 📤 #Email_encryption was #INVENTED.
🔏 #Email_encryption DEFINED:
Email encryption is encryption of email messages to protect the content from being read by entities other than the intended recipients. Email encryption may also include authentication. Email is prone to the disclosure of information. Although many emails are encrypted during transmission, they are frequently stored in plaintext, potentially exposing them to unauthorized access by third parties, including email service providers. By #default, popular email services such as #Gmail and #Outlook #do_not #enable #end_to_end_encryption.
btw valuable Information is #NEVER_FREE! 🤑 Consider yourselves Lucky!

Kroger is shuttering stores temporarily to pressure union to concede. Their offer is below the poverty levels set by the state! Their CEO took $15.4M home last year (450 times their average employee) and the company announced 7.5B in stock buybacks!! But now they cry poor, and want to stiff the workers.

🤖 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
