Is it totally rational? No. Is it slightly nearsighted? Yes. But this is new technology, so it is reasonable to wonder about all of those security-type questions. Most everyone who is currently using them, however, says there’s nothing to fear.

Now we know why Gaffney was cut. He couldn't be trusted with his Twitter and an electronic playbook.
