Which is why it's infuriating that health care companies implement secure email by asking the customer to click on a 3rd party link in an email.
An email they're saying is an insecure delivery system.
But we're supposed to click on links in these special emails.
Fuck!
- reaperducer 1y agoProblems: - E-mail is insecure. It can be read by any number of servers between you and the sender. - Numerically, very few healthcare companies have the time, money, or talent to self-host a secure solution, so they farm it out to a third-party that offers specific guarantees, and very few of those permit self-hosting or even custom domains because that's a risk to them. As someone who works in healthcare, I can say that if you invent a better system and you'll make millions.

- reaperducer 1y agoYou really haven't thought this through. It has nothing to do with "line goes up" nonsense.
