If you're already using Gmail, how privacy conscious can you be?
- cphuntington97 7y agoVery, apparently. Would anyone care to explain?
- danso 7y agoI use GMail with the understanding that Google has access to my activity and content. However, I trust Google to not divulge* my activity and content to other email recipients and senders. That's enough privacy for me in my normal email usage. * disabling the option of blocking image-loading in the iOS GMail app is definitely an aggravating and inexplicable tactic, to the point I'm starting to looking into switching away from GMail as my provider.
- wheelerwj 7y agohaha. op has a point about privacy but this is also accurate.
- manigandham 7y agoIt's a much bigger company under much stricter rules and regulations. It's well understood that a small startup will have a much more lax security posture around customer data than the trillion-dollar technology company.
