Question of the Day
What's the point of sending a password through snail mail when the front of the envelope advertises the fact that its contents are PERSONAL & CONFIDENTIAL, and therefore worth stealing if you're the type of person who's after that kind of stuff?
It's a lot more likely that something will happen to my password in physical transit than in electronic transit, no?
Reasons I can think of that justify sending passwords through snail mail:
- It's fun to make users wait a week for access.
- Trees are evil and we must kill more of them.
- The USPS needs our support so we should send more unnecessary mail.
- The printer doesn't get enough exercise.
- Bob's only talent is folding envelopes and we don't have the heart to fire him.
- Bob is annoying and we make him fold the envelopes so we can laugh when he gets paper cuts.
- Why am I picking on Bob?
- Who is Bob?
- I don't know. I think I'll stop now.
