Given that anyone signing up to XXL now will likely spend half their contract STM'd or otherwise managed I couldn't recommend that.

As secure as the rest of your data that isn't encrypted. If you are worried about your ISP snaffling your data best to not go on the Internet. If I worked for VM in an operational or engineering position and wanted to nose at everything going across your connection it'd be very simple and take a matter of minutes.

No more or less secure than emailling the stuff to friends. If it's highly sensitive - banking stuff, that video you recorded with the missus last night, etc, encrypt it first.
