It should be an opensource project that people can run themselves on node or linux or whatever. They are logging in via Oauth, pulling all emails from gmail, scanning them for some keywords/patterns and then submitting removal requests to those services. It be perfect for a standalone opensource project, all someone needs to run it is their google oauth key from developer dashboard.
Otherwise we have to trust "someone" whoever it is that designed this service to not keep all the emails they pulled out of your account for processing for whatever nefarious purposes one can imagine.
I mean if I ever wanted to mass harvest peoples inboxes then this is exactly how I would approach it and hope most people just click "next" > "next" on the permissions warning that google shows, which most people would.
This game (Secret Hitler) ruined quite of few nights when I was an exchange student: people kept playing it while it was limited to only 10 players IIRC and was an obvious albeit less-fun rip off of the game "Les Loups-garous de Thiercelieux"[1].
If Secret Hitler is a ripoff of anything, it's Avalon, which is similar to Mafia/Werewolf, but is much deeper and lacks the issue of player elimination.
I'd say it draws more from The Resistance/Avalon Resistance than Werewolf, since it focuses on voting and scoring points more than killing players and eliminating them from the game.
As a former member of the non-US audience who don't know what exactly is this Cards Against Humanity, I can confirm it's better to remain under the bliss of ignorance.
Aside from what everyone else has said, it's also a shameless knock-off of Apples to Apples, which preceded it. It's basically the same game, but more profane.
I'd call it an "intelligent continuation" rather than shameless knock-off. Apples to Apples targets innuendo for a family setting, CAH is a very adult game.
Revenue website here in Ireland does this, you need to have a cert which is read by a java applet, cert is issued after you use a one time password mailed to your home from what i remember, they expire every so often and need to be renewed.
One of the banking sites did as well but dropped it, now my gmail is more secure than my bank account since there is no 2fa on this bank.
The java applet approach must cause endless customer support requests
Come to Ireland and leave the motorway network for our country roads, we pass within inches of bushes on one side and cars on other at 80 to 100km/h while being blinded by idiots misusing fog lights and reflections of perpetualy wet roads. These "roads" resemble twisty tunnels thru trees :D
I don't really buy this paranoid viewpoint. If "they" were trying to use information from surveillance to blackmail people into doing what "they" wanted, considering the scale of these programs I find it hard to believe that they would not have tripped over someone who is either functionally unblackmailable or who is willing to take the hit for the greater good. Furthermore, at some point it becomes very difficult to not trace leaks of such information back to government surveillance programs and entities, so every execution of a blackmail threat poses a serious risk to the blackmailers It works against key people when used occasionally, but it can't be used at scale without someone figuring out what is going on.
I use Uber for a lot of time and never used Paypal with them. They accept regular credit cards. If you think (like Stallman) that using a credit card is an intolerable invasion of your privacy, then you'd have a hard time using Uber. You would also have a hard time convincing many other people to stop using credit cards.
