Big Question (Answered): “Does the Gmail/Wikileaks Issue Make You Worry About the Privacy of Your Email?”

We reported yesterday that Google released private data belonging to Jacob Appelbaum, a Wikileaks volunteer, upon request from the U.S. Government. Both his list of contacts and his IP address was given to the U.S. Government. The news that this information was handed over, sans search warrant, has angered many, as you can see from the comments on the post in question.

Are you worried about the privacy of your email?

We asked you earlier today and we culled your responses from Twitter, Facebook and Twitter and we used Storify to present it all back to you. If you have additional responses, please leave them in the comments.
