The Underscore Archives

Interesting article, thanks for forwarding that. I think we're not 
guilty because:
1. We allow direct import through csv (as exported from MS Outlook for 
example). The Plaxo import is an option for users who already have their 
contacts aggregated there.
2. We don't read the plaxo password - the user gives the plaxo password 
to the plaxo pop-up, which returns only the passwords to us.  Its 
possible plaxo might ask for passwords for other services - but we don't.
