Reply to Re: 6 Gmail Invitations
If you don't have an account, just leave the password field blank.
Hey, did you know that ALL e-mail is sent unencrypted through the internet? That means ANYONE along the way can just read it, archive it, and keep track of it? Undoubtedly several government agencies do just that, and probably quite a few Internet Service Providers.
Hell, if you're using standard POP3 to check your e-mail, anyone can even get your password!
If you trust e-mail for anything at all, unless its encrypted with pgp or on a dedicated intranet, then you've been quite silly for some time.
And if you use Google for anything, they keep track of every search that you make too. Amazing, now they know you've been searching for naked pictures of the Olsen Twins fighting squirrels or something.
As long as you know what you're getting into, gmail is a great deal. Unless you're really invested in your privacy (and on the internet, you really don't have any).
Hell, remember all AIM messages and such go right through AOL's servers, and they probably archive it all.
