Fair point, but i'm not talking about the general public, i'm talking about people with something to hide. What could the general public have to hide? |
Ask the 4,000 plus members of the general public who are my customers.
I'm sure a lot of them don't want anyone to know that they're buying kinky leather gear. I'm also pretty definite that many won't want anyone archiving it and sending them targetted ads!!

What sensitive info does the general bod in the street have in his email account? No more than he has in his wheelie bin, but as everyone knows, big brother is watching, digitally. Yawn...

I'm glad you can dismiss this so glibly. However pardon me if I disagree that it's so trivial nobody needs to worry about it.
The point is that information should *automatically* be treated as private, whether it's Auntie Maud's recipie for Xmas Pudding or your credit card details or details of your health problems.
Just because *you* don't consider it to be important doesn't mean that *I* should do the same.
