I’m sure you’ll all have heard about the Gmail dot scandal and that it WAS confirmed by Google.
I’m not a heavy Gmail user but I do have an Email box there (like everyone else) but it DOES pisses me off, specifically since my Email HAS a dot in it.
This can also explain why I got an Email a while back from someone that claimed to be my wife (although she was referring to another Eran Sandler ;-) ).

I’m not a heavy Gmail user but I do have an Email box there (like everyone else) but it DOES pisses me off, specifically since my Email HAS a dot in it. This can also explain why I got an Email a while back from someone that claimed to be my wife (although she was referring to another Eran Sandler ;-) ). If this was complained that long how come it wasn’t fixed? It’s outrageous that someone else, in certain cases, will be getting my private Emails. I feel so violated. I just hope they’ll get their act together and fix this before all hell will break loose. They have enough privacy issues/concerns right now to deal with and I’m sure the folks at Google are not in the mood for another one.
