I emailed the person, explained I was Internet security for the firm, and
said I should point out that while he was free to send these emails, I
wanted to warn him that traffic on the Internet can be scanned by gawd

Over months of time, one can accumulate an extended amount of information
about people by their traffic.

Very personal information.

In fact, you don't even have to send email to have personal items about you
disclosed. Just having an email address on your business card can do it.

Like when someone who sounded like a college girl who was a friend of their
family wrote to a very senior management person about a condition and whether
it was going to require surgery.
