Being more serious, I can see that being a problem, but it would be like any other situation, use a crappy password and it comes back to bite you then that's your problem. Also I don't think your grandma would have to worry as much about someone spoofing her email address and sending crap with it, but then again you never know.
Its never the watching what your doing, its more like asking you to help them figure out what a message means on their computer, and then getting upset when you tell them if you leave your mini-server farm (or as they like to call it, your room) you might forget that all important function your are codeing and most of it is still in your head. Then they have to lay the guilt trip on and your forced to go help them, and wow that was a simple error message, crap now what was I doing again?
I ws hearing yesterday that they might have done it just for the people that where invited by google employees, but I don't have anything to back that up
They are also probally banking on the fact that almost no one will ever get close to such a high limit. Most people that use a free webmail are probally used to haveing to keep themselves unnder 4 Mb or so, so they have a ritual of deleteing it if its not mission critical. Therefore google can handle a lot more users that are keeping their box light then if we where all used to packing our inboxes to the brim, even when the brim is 1 Tb
Sounds like employee's get 1 Tb and their might have been a mix up and regualr people where giving this much. Some that reported haveing 1 Tb are now reporting to be back down to 1 Gb. Fun while it lasted I guess:/
I think it was on BBC I was reading about goverments blocking their citizens from content, I know Iraq did it at first. All I can see it doing is makeing them mad and giveing them more of a reason to find a way around the block. They might just have to come to the relization that if people want to see if they will find a way to see it
Hope it doesn't end up like the girl who went after her mum with a knife when she took her phone away.
Just imagine inraged people going after the goverment with knives:o

Oh and this is a good case of wanting to keep your virus defanitions up to date if you ask me
Guess keeping current on mmr shots didn't go though his mind
If someone can sue for haveing hot coffee spilled on them, or McDonalds makeing them too fat, then I am sure Apple can sue them somehow :-/
It appears the truck is using some D-Link equipment on the Wi-Fi end, running at 22Mbps as time if net stumbler capture

What your grandma doesn't already know to do things like that?
Why not just use pgp or something of the sort?

According to the article:
I work from the top floor of my parent's house.
Hey the rents cheap, the foods free and only once or twice a day you have to answer one of their computer questions

You're right, think they will throw in a AOL running man to hang from your mirror?
AOL CD's no doubt
I am going to have to go with both, sort of like a how many light bulbs riddle.

Would be rather comical for about 5 minutes if C|Net networks sites where brought down due to be /.'ed
Probally has something to do with many people being able to do code audits freely and of course submit their fix for it ;)
