I agree it's semantics, but why is it worse? Because the commercial provider has access to the data? -- nm - Roger More Jul 5, 12:39 2
- Security on third party servers might be less reliable. And any government IT security folks - TWuG Jul 5, 12:42 1
  - Thinking about it, another reason it's less secure is that all it takes is for someone to guess the password. (Like with how Palin's emai was hacked) - Roger More Jul 5, 12:48
Right. -- nm - David Jul 5, 12:37
