Quick one, go into your email inbox right now and type in unsubscribe. However, many hundreds of results you just got, that's how many companies have your real email address. So the moment any of them gets breached or quietly sells you out, it's your real inbox eating the spam, the trackers, and the hackers forever. addy.io is designed to fix this entire problem. The whole idea is you stop giving out your real email address and instead hand every single site its own alias that just forwards to the inbox you already have. Think like Apple Hide My Email, except it's open source and you can bring it to any email inbox. And my favorite part is that once you get all your accounts using an email alias, you can always swap the email provider behind the scenes, like moving from Gmail to a private email provider without needing to update every single account's email.

And it's possible because you're really just putting Addy in front of your email. It's like your email bodyguard. This also offers a lot of protection. If a site starts to spam you, or you show up in a data breach, or you realize they sold your data because that one specific alias suddenly started getting junk, you just deactivate the alias. It's fully open source, so you're not trusting a black box. And you can even self-host the entire thing if you're that kind of person, which I know many of you are. It's on F-Droid, there are browser extensions and mobile apps so you can spin up a fresh alias right as you're signing up for something. And if you want to go all in, you can even use it with your own custom alias. It's free to start and they have a crazy generous free plan to get started.

EasyOptOutsSpeaking of tools, I wanted to mention the sponsor of this podcast, EasyOptOuts. Now, this isn't just your regular sponsor who just pays good money and ends up, um, on a podcast. Like, we have had EasyOptOuts on here for many years. They're just run by a couple guys. They've been shown by Consumer Reports to be one of the most effective, tied with Optery. But unlike Optery, their plans are $20 a year. There's no, like, tiered subscription model. It's meant to be extremely accessible to people, which is how I think it should be. It's already asking a lot for someone to have to pay to be removed from these sites that they never opted into using in the first place. But EasyOptOuts will opt you out of all of these random people-searching websites on your behalf. You can upload as much or as little information as you want to make it easier for them to find your information, and they work all around the US. They have business plans, so you can also get some discounts at scale. Go visit EasyOptOuts and get started for $20 a year down in the description. Again, I don't think they can make this a better value. They are one of the most effective services out there. Thank you, EasyOptOuts, as always, for sponsoring us, and now back to OpenAI's rogue agents.

ProwlerThis week's show is brought to you by Prowler. Uh and of course Prowler does uh you know cloud security checks, cloud security remediation, uh and it's open source. It's based on open source project, but there is of course a paid version and uh Prowler's founder Toni de la Fuente will join us later in this week's sponsor interview to talk about a few things. Some really interesting AI stuff actually. Uh one interesting thing is that uh Prowler's customers now are starting to use their own dashboards that they're creating from prompts. Uh Toni actually shared one of the prompts with me. It was on GitHub and then he's like I can you know he just said well I'll just set it public. So I've linked through to it in this week's show notes, but you can build a dashboard now from a prompt which is just amazing. Kind of annoying to all of those people who wasted all of those dev hours building dashboards pre-AI, but anyway. Um so yeah we talked to him about that and just about how people are using AI to interact with tools uh like Prowler. Uh interesting chat coming up later.
