Posted by timothy on from the oh-that's-sensible dept.

John writes "Aviran's place reports that a recent survey of 332 technology decision-makers at large U.S. companies reveals that more than 63% of corporations with 1,000 or more employees either employ or plan to hire workers to read outbound email, due to growing concern over sensitive information leaving the enterprise through email."

    It's funny how people object to having their email read by other people but not by machines (like Google's ad engine).

    Google should add a mail gateway feature to their yellow search appliance box which would automatically tag suspicous emails.
    They should also provide a Web-based GUI which would combine internal analysis with external Google searches (competitors' employees names, etc.) to create a very productive snooping environment.
