Just because a third-party site wants to delete my email and has the permission to do so with my consent, doesn't mean it should be allowed to go ahead and do so without my consent. The current design never requires the user's consent to wield the user's authority. --TylerReceived on Thursday, 7 February 2008 21:44:15 GMT
