The real problem is not passwords so much as trusted sources. Governments should have an email account that citizens have a right to and will not go away and have local offices to verify access issues.
I don't want my government hosting my email.
The last time they had to do anything important they stoled all the sensitive data in plain text in an Excel spreadsheet and then the spreadsheet got corrupted so they lost everything. Of course they didn't have backups.
But at least since it was stolen, the backup was hosted for free on the hacker forums /s
No. Wtf no.
Whatever you're smoking, do less of that
I bet the gov would love to host your email and have access to all the same info Google does...
