Ethics

I opened up Gmail this morning to check my messages and noticed a new feature. Now, you can post-date your emails and mark them as "read" or "unread". See for yourself:

In my opinion, this is just not an ethical feature! Just imagine the problems it could cause a student, an employee, a trusted friend or family member. In this day and age, technology is too advanced and in my opinion, can cause people to dump their ethics or standards for convenience.

What are your thoughts??
