I personally don't *care* that Google scans my mail. The scanning is done by algorithms, not human beings, with the intent to provide ads topical to the content of the messages. The ads are sometimes useful, sometimes whimsical, and always unobtrusive. I could quite easily filter them out entirely, but don't bother. As a general rule, I've never considered email secure, and normally don't say things in email that would give me heartburn if they became public. If it's *that* private, well, that's what GPG is for. I'm contrarian on privacy. The three areas I consider private are my finances, my health records, and my sex life. The first two are in the hands of third parties who have legal as well as moral reasons to try to *keep* them private, and my sex life never gets online in the first place. For the rest, I'm an open book. My usual response to worries about privacy is "You *wish* you were important enough that anyone could be *bothered* to pay that sort of attention to you. You aren't and they don't." > -Chris > Http://tawhakisoft.com ______ Dennis https://plus.google.com/u/0/105128793974319004519 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ How ServiceNow helps IT people transform IT departments: 1.
