I'll suppose that [livejournal.com profile] absinthe_dot_ca or [livejournal.com profile] kallisti might know more about this than I, but it seems interesting. Apparently, a hacking tool exists that will allow access to Gmail accounts.

This glitch can apparently be avoided by following these steps:

Simply log into GMail, and click on the Settings link over in the top right corner. At the bottom of this screen is a section labeled 'Browser Connection', which by default is set to 'Don't always use https'. Change this to 'Always use https', then click the "Save changes" button directly below. That 'should' keep you safe from people using this fascinating new toy."


Hey, I dunno if this is legit or horseshit, but I figure it's hard to be too cautious. Unless you're the DHS, in which case chilling the fuck out might be a good idea.
