[Year 12 IT Apps] Security

[Robert]

Thanks Margaret,

We do tend to overlook some things.

We have two choices on this security issue -

either

we need to restrict access to the list messages to authorised list members - 
don't ask me how, I'm not a security expert.

or

we must be careful what we say, so that students or other "non-members" of 
the list cannot gain any "useful" or personal infomation that we do not want 
them to have.

Answer?

What do we want? And what is actually possible?

One of the joys of the Internet, and also one of the biggest problems, is 
the open access of information to all of us.

Where do these lists need to go?
