Both of which are vastly superior to the alternatives, of course. But they don't make money for social networking sites, who have the profit motive to Balkanize communication. And they actually require attention, with some care in communication style and adherence to sensible social norms. (And incidentally: a growing number of social networking sites are turning out to be prolific spammers. One in particular seems to me to be nothing more than a front. Hardly surprising.) ---Rsk Please do not CC me on messages to the list. _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
