Google isn't satisfied with securing Gmail itself from prying eyes; it's blocking sinister
add-ons, too. The email service now supports
Content Security Policy, which prevents web extensions from running code that
could bypass security or otherwise wreck your day. The move shouldn't create
havoc with honest add-ons, but Google acknowledges that some of them might need
updates to work properly. That's a headache if you rely on these extras to
sweeten your Gmail experience, but the move could be worth the tradeoff if it
prevents someone from snooping
on your messages.
