I just saw a pretty girl and we made eye contact

Nonsense, I put her contribution to humanities and the arts in a deeply encrypted partition. Were I to keel over from a heart attack this minute, nobody but the NSA or a talented team of Russian hackers would be able to get at them pics.

A gentleman would never share such treasures or violate a pretty lady's trust. I'll leave that sort of misbehavior to the teens.

Share those pics or it didn't happen.

I would never accuse you of such.

But the digital trail from her phone to yours is somewhat less protected. It doesn't take hackers, just some bored IT guys at Verizon to get those photos into the wild. And does she know how to purge her phone?

**Lemur** · 11-10-2010, 16:42

Ah, well, there is no such digital trail. All we have to fear is Google and their evil Gmail empire. So I guess technically I wasn't sexted, since that requires a phone. Or does it? Is there an alternative term when a gorgeous woman sends you nekkid pics via Gmail?

She sent the pics through GMail? So the NSA does already have them on file.

Seriously though, I would trust Google even less than the Verizon networking staff. At least there is a good chance the Verizon folks are too incompetent to intercept.

You're no fun at all, drone. If everybody were as sensible as you, I seriously doubt the species could continue. I would question whether anyone at the Google Mothership has the slightest interest in a couple of middle-aged divorcees and their dirty talk/pics. There are hot teens to stalk, after all. We would be very low down the list of desirable targets.

Louis, you promised you wouldn't re-share the pics! Oh, the humiliation!

Probably so, but just remember: All your pics are belong to Google.

Do the pics have any metadata tags, or did she clear those before sending?

Okay, that does it, I am no longer planning to sext you, drone. I'd be all, "How do you like the feather boa and the assless chaps," and you'd be all, "Have you considered the digital fingerprints on this JPEG?"

I'm with Lemur on this. The sheer volume of naked pictures flowing in and out of Gmail inboxes has got to be immense. And what could they do with them really? Blackmail? Extortion... of their own customers? I think not. Gmail, and Google itself, would likely go down in flames if it got out that employees were cruising people's inboxes looking for naked pics.
