Programmable Fax – API for sending and receiving faxes

Does it matter? The point is that fax isn't inherently a great idea for confidential info.

There's also the issue that many fax endpoints that are fax to email gateways. Or fax to non https website gateways.

Edit: Nobody is arguing for using email instead of fax. The argument is to use something better. Like paypal or stripe instead of full cc info + cvv2 on a piece of paper.

When it comes to liability for breaches of confidentiality, yes, it matters very much whether the sender chose an poor channel or the recipient had choose poor practices around what was done with information once it was received.
