I stick to my comment, since I found Philip's reply sarcastic,
illogical and uncalled-for. He has not yet been able to justify his
position as to how the meebo guys are untrustworthy while Yahoo! and
Hotmail are. Sure big brandname counts, but how much does it count is
the issue? Its about to what degree you trust whom, and entirely a
personal issue.
Hello Deb. I think your comment on Philip was out of line. Philip is a
man of few words and his comments will always be focussed to the
necessary part of the topic. Sometimes you may feel pricked by the short
and not so sweet expert comments from the experts but they have a deep
meaning in them
that comes from a lot of hands on experience.
When you subscribe to Yahoo or Hotmail, you create an account with them
and you knowingly use their computers. But if someone else offers you to
use its computers, they should have no business to know your account
details on the Yahoo/Hotmail computers. It is like using a banking
application created by a third party, to access your bank account.
Your doctor and the video library guy know all your
secrets but they should not be disclosed to third parties.
Regards,
Rony.
