Mar 11	comment	When secure email, is not really secure Good point on the passive-only attacks and on tracking. Although, in this case I'd think they be more concerned with preventing a data breach than merely identifying who caused it after the fact.
Mar 11	comment	When secure email, is not really secure If they're assuming my mail is secure enough for the link, what do they really gain by not sending the data? Losing the link is the same as losing the data.
