Maxine Sweetman-Ive (@sweetmax22) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@BekoUK I bought a Beko VCS5125AR Upright Vacuum Cleaner in Red from AOL 27/2/21 and in the past week it has cut out after using it for 10mins and did not restart for 20mins. Not happy. I would like it swapped for a hoover that works competently for the use it was bought for!

Offensive Lab (@OffensiveLab) reportedNew research shows content inside an email can escape its message boundary and interfere with the webmail interface. Across attack chains spanning Outlook, Gmail, Fastmail, Proton Mail, Yahoo Mail, and AOL Mail, the techniques can capture passwords, take over third-party accounts, leak tokens, hijack trusted UI actions, and manipulate AI tools that read email. PortSwigger researcher Gareth Heyes presented the work at Black Hat USA 2026. One Outlook/Firefox chain spoofs a Microsoft sign-in screen and captures the password a recipient types. A Yahoo/AOL paste race can expose a Medium email-login token and let an attacker sign in as the victim. A Gmail/Cowork chain can exfiltrate a Slack token after prompt injection and user interaction. The paper presents proof-of-concept research and does not report malicious exploitation. Public PoCs remain available as of August 8. The researcher said Fastmail fixed two CSS mutation bugs and a Proton Mail proxy bypass stopped working when he retested it, while Outlook label-jacking and Gmail's image-set() bypass still worked when the research was published on August 6. The paper does not state whether the full Outlook password-capture chain was fixed. For webmail providers, the paper recommends isolating HTML email in sandboxed iframes and tightly restricting CSS, custom attributes, select menus, and image requests.

BrINg ME ThE tOKeN (@annieelsa2) reported@AuriBlooms I feel like all these ppl who have this sick POV of TCAP being bad in the early 2000s obvy never got lured by a predator. I have & this commentary is sick & upsetting for victims of online child predators. He showed America the harm of AOL and issues parents were not aware of.

star anise (@anisenot) reportedI once was shopping a manuscript to agents and I got such positive response to it & this one agent had asked for the exclusive manuscript. I agreed not knowing any better & turned down other requests for the full (stupid me), but it was actually autobiography presented as fiction, about my real life AOL catfish and I used his (alleged) real name because main plot points were directly related to the name & its meaning (& also f him he was a catfish). So her response in the end was that while she was very into my story she couldn't get past the terrible contrived name I had chosen for the character & ultimately had to pass I let myself feel quite embarrassed for ever writing such garbage & I shelved the whole thing, but then later that same name was used in so many popular TV shows, it's like a real name lots of people have

Calvin (tyler loop enthusiast) (@FlockCwood) reportedSometimes I think of the days of aol instant messenger, and how the tech would be to put up an away message and say something like “god my parents will never get me don’t text me. Don’t messsge me” Then proceed to sit there wondering why no one has texted me. Simple times

The Stairway to Retro 💾🕹️ (@StairwayToRetro) reported@RetroTechorDie At a stretch, I could understand them wanting to shut down the Nina network if the Italians plan to revive AOL chat. But going after someone who makes a video, especially one with a positive tone toward the AOL brand, makes absolutely no sense.
