A non-snarky answer: because even the names of files can be be sensitive.
For example, learning that your boss is working on a file named "Employees to Layoff This Month" reveals information you were not aware of earlier.
- tayl0r 16y agoExcellent point, but if you are packet sniffing your boss maybe that file has some merit =) My only point is that it's not the huge deal that the community is making it out to be. Anyways, this is the last time I attempt to go against the hive-mind.
- brown9-2 16y agoPerhaps it is not a huge deal to you but I personally find it very disconcerting for a company that had always claimed up until now to encrypt all communications and storage.
