WASHINGTON -- Discussing the controversy over former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton using her personal email account for government business, a top Senate Republican revealed that he has never sent an email in his life.

"I don't email," Sen. Lindsey Graham (S.C.) said. "You can have every email I've ever sent. I've never sent one."

"Meet the Press" host Chuck Todd had asked Graham whether he had a private email account because Graham said he wanted to know if other cabinet secretaries besides Clinton used private accounts during their tenure. Graham said he did have a few questions about Clinton's email.

graham is a member of the Senate Subcommittee on Privacy, Technology and the Law

I understand the sentiment, but having your phone tell you when you need to leave for something, adjusting for traffic owns.

Also when I go to navigate and I don't have to type anything in because where I wanted to go was suggested. I know it sounds spooky and intrusive (and it is!), I guess what I'm saying is that I, personally, don't mind given the convenience it brings me. I recognize that not everyone will share my views and that's ok, too!
