the whole big brother concept lives on in high tech, I grew up in santa clara valley and became a product of high tech. seen many good things come and then go away gmail is just another ad based service plugging itself into todays weak market. free free is anthing free? back in the day I signed up for some great web base mail services before it came big then the day came when they wanted to charge for a service that i used for 3 years free. * weak * I lost major contacts over this b.s Joe
-----Original Message----- From: Aristotle Sagan <killer_jupiter@HOTMAIL.COM> Sent: Apr 2, 2004 1:23 PM To: vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM Subject: GMail - <F> - List related Article in the SJ Mercury News this AM stating that the new Mail service from Google will be able to electronically snoop your email messages and then place advertisements in your outgoing/incoming email. I thought the idea of 2 gig of free diskspace was too good to be true. I don't need anyone reading my mail, in person or electronically, to use it to SPAM my messages to anyone. So, will the list allow email from GMail service seeing as it is potentially a SPAM carrier?
