> It’s not much comfort when they’ll scan your emails for evidence of purchases you made. I can’t seem to disable that , and they pay a lot of money to link your CC purchases that haven’t hit their servers to your account. I've heard that this is why Amazon purchase confirmation emails no longer list all the items in your order, and now read "You ordered Truncated Product Name... and 5 other items!") -- they didn't want another major tech company getting so much insight into their business. Google's dominance and ubiquitous surveillance is causing email email to evolve into something less useful for all of us.
