Someday, years from now, those people who knew me now will exclaim
"wow, she was right!" but they will not be able to say that on the internet.
Microsoft claims to have an interest in what is going on, and what better
way than to offer free email, read and archive that email, and then make
money by selling advertising in the emails? What will they possibly use
those emails for? Heh. Before the lawsuit was final in the OS/browser
monopoly wars, MS split off their Ai program, so it would not be affected in
any way by the lawsuit. You can bet it will be learning about actual human
writing habits by practicing on those emails, and remembering them. Just
wait 10 years (or less), when MS makes it available online, and ask it what
*your* favorite color is.
