Some years ago - after the disclosure by Snwoden - I tried to convince lawyers and tax agents I work with to communicate encrypted. No chance, even if I offered my support to set this up. One told me 'Important things are send by SnailMail anyway', showing that the awareness and understanding about privacy is just not there.
What's worse are those who think FAX is secure and use it to send confidential info.
It /was/ somewhat safer, an interceptor needed access to the cable - unless they were government or judiciary with access to the phone exchange. But fax had some legal support. It was a recognized method of sending a signed paper, but not email with scanned file of the same paper. The other day I cancelled a phone contract. I prepared a signed PDF (Libre Office can do those now!), and they told me to just post a photo (jpg) of it in the official support forum. And it was accepted. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
