  With what? I _do_ care about running random plugins in my browser that update in the background. There's nothing stopping a malicious plugin from scraping stuff out of your email, and I feel like _that_ is a legitimate security concern!

    There's nothing stopping a malicious webmail provider from scraping stuff out of your email, which, BTW, is the whole point of this post. Fastmail isn't even under the control of your local firewall.
