Quote - As for security, it amazes me, for example, how stupid -- scratch that -- how inconsistent lawyers can be about this. I mean, some of them worry enough about leaks to have policies prohibiting office employees from using their own devices on the network, while at the same time they have no problem routinely sending/receiving legal correspondence and documents via unencrypted email. Perhaps this shouldn't bug me, but for some reason it does.
Yup... this is quite simply that they can understand the written policy or rule, I guess?
Email is "magic letters" :laugh:
Also, to be fair to them, it seems absurd to the lay person to think that the Internet email format has been created in a way that renders it intrinsically insecure... and that indeed some decades in, it still isn't secure by default.
