Personalities: The "Blind Copy Terrorist"

To cc or not to cc?

Ever received an e-mail that is copied to just about everyone, except that you, curiously, are “blind copied.” Alas, there’s a good chance the “Blind Copy Terrorist” is at work. This tactic is a sure ingredient for anxiety and insecurity. Imagine if Jan Brady was blind copied on a family outing e-mail while the rest of the Brady Bunch, including Alice, received it directly. The “Blind Copy Terrorist” loves to leave you in doubt about where you stand!
