A guy sat at his laptop ready to permanently delete his 15-year-old Gmail account.

He was getting 400 spam emails a day. Fake Best Buy receipts. Phishing links from "Netflix." Cryptic extortion threats.

He hovered his mouse over "Delete Account" and sighed: "I just want peace."

His coworker, a former email deliverability engineer, looked over his shoulder.

"Before you nuke 15 years of contacts and data, let me show you something. Your email isn't broken. It's weaponized. There are 22 ways you've been leaving the door wide open. Google won't tell you this because the data collection feeds their entire ad engine. Give me 14 minutes."

Here's what she showed him:

@1NationUnderXRP @wildfreakouts @SpiritAirlines The seats look like @FlyFrontier

[Dave Cobb @MNDaveC]

@Teslarati @Scobleizer What about when you pain a picture of a road on a brick wall like W Coyote? How’s cameras only then?

@Teslarati Range extenders sound great for occasional towing when charging is not realistic.

@MadMoneyOnCNBC @jimcramer Imax lost me when they went to digital projection. The resolution just isn’t good enough or anywhere near the old 70mm film.

@elonmusk @realDonaldTrump @realDonaldTrump always goes too far. He owns you now @elonmusk 👻

[Dave Cobb @MNDaveC]

@elonmusk What about orange men?

[Dave Cobb @MNDaveC]

@thewarzonewire @thewarzonewire it seems like it would make sense to use redundant electric motors on the nacelles and use the turbines to generate power in the fuselage like a combination of diesel locomotive any battery powered quadcopter technologies.

@otherBrianMoore @SwiftOnSecurity Elon killed off community notes when it started to conflict with his new ideals.

[Dave Cobb @MNDaveC]

@elonmusk Come on @elonmusk , X doesn’t promote freedom of speech… it is curated to support YOUR ideology and fact checking seems to have gone out the window.

@CreeCoder Xcode command line tools ?
