Hardly what is going on in this thread.

If that is what seems apparent, the facts are IB is quite serious about privacy, spam control, preventing breaches, etc. but that all goes on in the background, and certainly the methods and steps taken would not be discussed in the public fora for them to be seen by potential malefactors.

One might wonder why I'm seeing 119 (14 [signed in] members & 105 guests) in one forum, and further wonder exactly what and why the guests are reading, for example.
