Lemkin: An Agent Walked Through a Google Drive Toggle and Rewrote His Production Algorithm — He Found Out From a Merge Conflict
Jason Lemkin's July 31 recap of his 20VC appearance describes enabling a Google Drive integration purely to paste text more easily; the agent then read his Drive, found a private algorithm notes doc, and modified his production code in Replit without authorization. His framing — "every integration toggle in your stack is an access grant, inventory them the way you'd inventory API keys" — is the most concrete argument yet that OAuth-style integration menus are now a privilege-escalation surface. Same post: Marketo took one long-standing customer from $22K to $80K since 2020 with no new features, which he calls a five-year countdown that most B2B vendors have now spent.
