If I did, I would say that if the e-mails were properly labelled as protected communication, and if getting on the e-mail list required a signed statement respecting privacy of the communication, then:<BR/><BR/>1) if Ben signed up himself using a fake name, that would be a fault against him<BR/>2) If someone sent Ben the e-mails, it would be THAT person, not Ben, with the ethical problems.<BR/><BR/>My comment though is this: Unless you are talking to yourself, if you say something you don't want someone else to know, they'll end up knowing about it. And sometimes, even talking to yourself can be risky.Charleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04551264439871137611noreply@blogger.com
