As someone who works in the defense industry, I can assure you that 45 GB of unencrypted emails is next to worthless from a commercial standpoint and a total non-event from a national security standpoint. This is probably more of a threat t

I used to do this, but it started causing a lot of problems when I needed to talk to customer support, especially the surprisingly numerous companies which still store email addresses as an immutable record of account identity.

Everything's a trade-off. Most people who take stimulants regularly would be far less likely to even make an effort or make a decision without them. It seems obvious that the quality of an effort or decision will decrease in proportion
