Do people really trust these web services with their private info? Is this the same web with all the spam emails - lottery wins, viagra sales, fake bank communications, etc? The web that is full of viruses? The web where no one really knows who they are dealing with?

In many ways the web is like present day hollywood with its boom-vrash flash-bang movies. Full of sound and fury, but signifying nothing. All sight and sound but no plot and nothing for the intellect.
The web is a wild west arizona desert - full of snake oil salesmen - its just the bandwidth is higher.
