Going Back To Paper Due To Virus Attack
from the seems-a-bit-extreme dept
There are plenty of different ways to react to receiving an email virus on your computer. Deciding to switch back to a real plastic rolodex might be one of the more extreme choices. Sure, there's nothing wrong with having a back up contact list, but it's still probably easier to just print out a copy of what you have on your machine. There's nothing wrong with having a real rolodex (I have one), but to decide to use one because you got an email virus (partly through your own stupidity) seems to be an overreaction.Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
