Legal Crap on Emails

Legal Crap on Emails

This has long been a major rant of mine, all the shit that appears at the bottom of emails, its total shit created by lawyers.

Why do we have to have all this shit, when I write a letter I don't put this shit on the bottom, if I talk to somebody I don't have to say this shit, so why with emails.

I sent a friend an email today, below is the email, I thought about removing the company name from the email but then I thought... name and shame, especially since its repeated, so they can't even be arsed to check what they send out.
