Uuh oh. But at least that requires hands-on action locally, and will get
noticed, as opposed to being able to do this from anywhere via the
worldwide Hackernet with negligible chances of being caught.
Any bank sending statements on the back of a postcard would get done,
but they do it happily by email (Kiwibank). Worse, people think that's
quite ok...
