The internet is a kind of huge electronic postal system with many
"postmen". These "postmen" are computer systems. However, your postcards
(when your emails are not encrypted - your are not using sealed envelops)
can be read by object-oriented programs that analyze your messages for
humans and your postcards can also be read by human beings with expert
system assistants. No wonder that the internet is one of most critical
elements of the certain intelligence agency's information collection
strategy among many other programs/activities. I think that the small boy
would not like to put his business at risk by using postcards, when
communicating confidential business information with his clients and
business partners. Quite, frankly, your ISP is only one of these "postmen".
There are people who are using postcards when sending "logic diagrams",
"layout plans" and many other design and development (R&D) to their
internal locations and/or to suppliers/customers on the internet.
People are focusing on some firewall issues, while, at the same time, they
are ignoring basic communication security factors.
The small boy is alive.
