This article is full of anti gmail hype. It’s a third party add on. Gmail is one of the more secure services for prevention of tracking if you’re the recipient. Don’t enable “view images” in gmail and you won’t be tracked. That’s all it takes.
I'm not a Gmail user, but that's good to know. Thanks!
No, YOU are propagating google hype.
Why? Because Google itself already has everyone who uses gmail (apparently you) agree that google can read your e-mail and use it to advertise to you.
Once google has “read” your e-mail (in other words, anything that passes through their server including replies to from your friends and correspondents) it is free game for saving, analysis, and use by google and whoever it permits to access their records (hrumph, en es aa and similars).
So YOU by using google mail have infected, with the google disease, all your friends who reply to you; because their replies, without their consent, will be sucked up into the gmail vacuum FOREVER to be used as google sees fit.
Friends don’t make friend deal with google or gmail.
You don’t know it apparently, and I am not trying to upset you, but it is actually incredibly rude to use gmail, and it is bad freeping on top of that. I an surprised that JimRob actually is willing to let people use gmail addresses for FR! Just shows their penetration into our society.
I am now beginning to officially refuse to correspond with anyone who uses gmail. So many people I work with use it, so pray for me please!
