Like it or not, you can now talk to ChatGPT using a Fax. Innovation made in Germany!

All those sensitive forms that still have to go through fax will be picked up by email.

Just kill me and be done with it.

because, since fax machines are older than telephones, they have had time to be written into law.

Outdated meme. We now use email to send around scanned documents. FUTUR!

I'm not sure what the problem is here. It's at least as good as fax in terms of security. And you can more easily index it.

And way better than something like DocuSign or whatever cloud based hosted service that you cannot actually control...

Protocols, not products

Facsimile is not secure at all. Modern email is at least going to encrypt in transit.
