Comment on Time to chop wood
jaybone@lemmy.world 3 days agoThe whole medical empire in the US still uses fax machines for “security reasons”. I had to sign up for some shadey ass online fax service to send docs to my moms doctor after she got sick. And the idiots at the doctors office had their fax machine broken half the time, so they never got half the docs I sent to them.

Sadly, many can’t be trusted or bothered to use a secure means of communication. You might be surprised to know that a lot of people think whatever they use for email or sms is ‘secure.’ Many of these people hold high positions in these organizations. Often healthcare, finance, and higher ed try to sidestep the liability as a result.
