And don't forget the propensity of (wholesale) VoIP
providers to require an NDA to be faxed (or, if you're lucky, scanned and
e-mailed) before discussing pricing.
Without wishing to digress further, I find this
utterly absurd, and I've yet to find a satisfactory explanation of why it
should be.

Attrafax
While I'd love to see FAXing just die, especially with the
amount of headache associated with it, the reality is that specific
organizations still rely on it heavily on a daily basis (ie Health Care and
Banking/Finance Industry). Plus they can legally get away with FAXing personal
data directly between machines, since the FAX transmission doesn't seem to be
directly covered by all their respective privacy regultions (ie HIPAA, PCI,
etc.), unless of course it's a FAX-to-email service. Plus most of these
organizations just don't have the internal expertise to setup end-to-end
encrypted email nor the impetus to deal with it, since FAXing works fine in
their eyes. I think it's going to be around quite a while longer unless they
actually stop making the FAX machines and force people to use something
else.
Cheers,
