To be fair, fixing this bug wouldn't stop sensitive information appearing in swap. Sensitive information also has a tendency to appear in /tmp and /var as well. The EFF recommends full disk encryption, which would stop this appearing in clear text anywhere. > The easy fix is to disable this feature until it can be redeveloped > with some thought about proper handling of peoples data. Iirc, last time I used this feature it wouldn't let me print the annotations, and due to the policy of storing the annotations in a non-standard format other pdf annotation software couldn't recover my annotations. I ended up printing a screenshot. Having a warning that this annotation feature was likely to eat my homework and dump it in an unencrypted partition would've been nice. -- John C.
