    IF their end users don't see any difference while using Outlook, which they already "know".

    It always surprises me how much crying goes on from end users when they are forced to learn something new. Especially as it's their job to learn a new system if/when it is introduced.

    Will it be encrypted?

    If so I expect encryption will soon be outlawed, yes it's ok for Amazon to do it but as soon as Google does it new legislation is needed.

    The current plan goes against every value that our society is built upon.

  16. Re:What Idiots on Fraudsters Abusing Canada's Do-Not-Call List · · Score: 1

    The difference is that telemarketing scum still need actual humans to make the call and that still cost them something, even if its feeding slaves.

    Email costs them nothing to send, only legitimate email users pay anything, it's all a question of accountability the spammers normally use exploited systems to send millions of emails at once. The only link back to them is some obscure phishing site setup via anonymous proxies.

    The solution is to go after the companies selling the products, constantly harass reception at their building and see how they like it.

    Why would they want to know?

    Customer service goes a long way, it is not in the ISPs interest to pursue piracy, because it provides bad service to their customers.

    Your problem is that you try to read the article.

    The correct /. procedure is

    1. Article appears.

    2. Someone make the "First" post.

    3. Everyone follows the "First" post and respond only to other users, the original topic is often forgotten.

    4. Retards AKA "mods", who never participate, (hence their ability to use the points they are given) arrive and try to fuck everyone over.

    5. Fights break out with people picking on spelling or posting "Mod parent up" (As if they expect to get thru to people of lower intellect.)
