Bank goofs and sends customer PII to an email account. Bank sends message pleading retroactive disclaimer. (But useless disclaimers are another topic.)
Email address doesn't respond. Bank goes to Google. Google says "tell it to the judge."

I suspect this one will result in interesting appeals. (Also suddenly makes the "Presidential kill switch" [http://bit.ly/NCR1Z] marginally less absurd ...) ====================== (quote inserted randomly by Pegasus Mailer) [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] The brain is a mass of cranial nerve tissue, most of it in mint condition. - Robert Half http://victoria.tc.ca/techrev/rms.htm http://blog.isc2.org/isc2_blog/slade/index.html http://twitter.com/rslade http://blogs.securiteam.com/index.php/archives/author/p1/ http://twitter.com/NoticeBored _______________________________________________ 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.
