You\ntype up a few drafts. You want to make sure the email your boss ultimately\nreceives or approves is the best possible version of the email. There\u2019s only\none problem. If your company uses Gsuite, your boss can see every single draft\nyou\u2019ve even dreamed of typing up. Your boss knows every move you make in real\ntime \u2013 and there\u2019s nothing you can do to stop it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Price\nYou Pay for Convenience<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gsuite tools are helpful, ubiquitous, and easy to use. Many\ncompanies opt for the paid version of Gsuite products for unified Gmail, Google\nCalendars, Google Docs, and Google Drive. It\u2019s nice having everyone on the same\npage and presenting employees with easy to use, familiar tools. Unfortunately,\neasy and convenient comes with a much higher price tag. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many employees don\u2019t realize that Gsuite is giving their\nboss a play by play of every move they make. Of course it\u2019s unethical to tell\nyour boss that you\u2019ve reviewed a document when you haven\u2019t. If you use Gsuite,\nyou\u2019ll never get away with it. Your boss can tell what attachments you\u2019ve\nopened and read. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Did your boss treat you unfairly? Do you want to express\nyourself productively through an email? Your boss may be sitting there, in real\ntime, watching you type out your first, angrier draft of that email. It doesn\u2019t\nmatter how you conduct yourself moving forward \u2013 your boss will always know. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Google can be Creepy When it Comes to Privacy<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Google basically extends an open invitation to everyone to\nread and review whatever you\u2019re doing. Have you ever noticed that when you\ncheck your Gmail, it generates quick and easy replies you can send with the\nclick of a button or a simple tap? At first, that seems like the most\nconvenient thing in the world. Until you realize that they know what your email\nsaid, somehow. How else could they generate the reply?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Google uses artificial intelligence to read emails, track\nbehaviors, and even learn your manner of speaking. While it\u2019s a stretch to say\nthey\u2019re creating clones of their users, they may be creating caricatures that\nare a bit too close to home. Even when you\u2019re utilizing an \u201cincognito\u201d browser\nor some new Gmail feature that seems to promote the illusion of greater\nprivacy, that\u2019s never really the case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Google doesn\u2019t use encryption for anything. They collect\nusage reports and help companies run targeted advertising campaigns. They\u2019ve\nalways stored data, and they\u2019ll always know far more about you than you want\nthem to. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Switch to\nPrivacy Oriented Services <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Companies like PrivateMail never collect or read anything.\nEvery single thing you do is confidential, thanks to OpenPGP email encryption\nand paranoid encrypted cloud storage. Nobody other than the intended recipient\nwill ever know what\u2019s in your email and or what your attachments are \u2013\nincluding us. We\u2019re locked out of your privacy, and that\u2019s the way things\nshould be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>PrivateMail offers calendar features, email alias, task\nmanagement features, notes, IMAP and POP3 support of business accounts, and\nbusiness oriented private email packages. Talk to your boss about switching to\nsomething a little more secure. It\u2019ll even keep sensitive company data safer. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You have to send an important email to or for your boss. You type up a few drafts.
