Allow me to sell your organisation some VR goggles with iris-reading DRM protection. Your browser won't display on any other screen. And Google Services won't work in any other browser.

I can still remember the message (or at least important bits) and can write it down when at home or tell it to other people.

[wyxuan]

Yeah but it is still a helluva lot harder to leak it, and it isn't as good as showing an email exchange.

[rndgermandude]

Sure it's harder, and it will not stand up in a court of law probably. But there probably have been and still are a ton of spies, national and industrial, who do exactly this, memorize things.

Well, presumably most communication is two way or actionable. If not, then there is no reason for the communication in the first place.

This is an arms race. Allow me to use an iris app on my smartphone to defeat your iris-reading DRM while I take a video of the content.

It's not possible to do what Gmail wants to do without a SCIF.

You're making broadly wrong assumptions about what Gmail wants to do here.

As an employee of a very large corporation, are you trying to claim a special inside knowledge about the strategic thinking of the corporation. Are you in or do you report to the C-suite?

If not, consider that you might be making your own broadly wrong assumptions.

[icedchai]

Don't bother. Someone will figure out how to either fit a small camera into the VR goggles, or separate the iris-reader from the display part.
