WTF? Most Most Small- to Medium-Sized Businesses are not security-minded enough (even if they had the financial means) to secure their local networks properly, so keeping the data local makes it readable not only to government agencies, but to anyone else who´s willing to invest some time and trouble. Local data is either a case of "hopefully I´m obscure enough to be secure" or an attitude like "driving a car is safer than taking the airplane because I´m doing the driving myself".# Regards, Lorenz
