True, but I don't see what can stop me from setting up a [email protected] account, accessing it on https://gmail.com with an HTTP tunneling I've setup at home, and using it from work (or simply browsing the newsgroup via VNC at home). I also call bullshit because these people could, for example, google for "parent", accidentally make a typo and type "patent" (r and t are close to each other) and eventually see some patent-related stuff, which wasn't supposed to be seen. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
