    In Canada I think fax machines are still prevalent. Let’s get rid of those insecure devices too.

      It’s privacy regs. Fax machines are as insecure as ever, and that’s the point: it doesn’t get worse while ciphers retire constantly. So while this years it’s SHAx that dies, fucking fax machines’ threat is statically bad.

      Reliably bad is reliable, I guess.

      I say this while having been one of those people who got a raft of fax spam from a clinic who flubbed the numbers.
