Maybe a hack in the "packets" where part of the packets hack the delete email function of the email receiving client.
The shit seems totally illegal to me regardless of how it's done.
It's destroying evidence if the receiver is using the email as proof of a communication.
It's like going into someone else's office and shredding the documents that you sent them.
It's the receiver's property once the email is sent.
The IRS can't send you a letter and then come over to your house and shred the letter without your consent.
And that shouldn't change just because the letter is electronic.
And this shit will be outlawed as soon as the terrorist start using it to send instructions to each other. So don't even count on it ever fully working because the government would
want to recover emails for investigation so there will be this "back door" some where to
regenerate those emails.
If the government can order Apple to hack a phone then they can order gmail to regenerate and email.
Don't trust this bullshit.
