Online Meeting

[Processing Qbits]

I believe businessmen usually do have more than one cellphone (though they
have it for a different reason and that reason is probably fading with
cellphones having the capability to use more than one chip) but then again,
a cellphone is more like a computer
Why do I choose Linux over Windows? It gives me more control over my
computer....anything that goes wrong, anything that I wish to change...I am
able to
So if I have similar control over my cellphone, I believe it would be like
my computer...

As much as I respect google, I fear that it is gaining too much power, but I
guess I have to respect other people's opinions too...while your approach is
"if you don't want your secret to be out there, don't put it there"....my
approach would be "if you don't want one company to hold all your secrets,
give a piece to each so that none has it all"

Your approach: Security by Obscurity
My approach is similar to anonymous emails through 2 or more
remailers....the first will have your real email but your encrypted
message....the last will have your real message and the person it is being
sent to but not your own email

So I'll just agree to disagree!
