   Your response fails to address the trust issue.

   To clarify, then: Your response fails to address the trust issue.

   You could invite them to send you their debit card PINs and their   
   home addresses. To clarify, your response fails to address the   
   trust issue.   
      
   You are asking people to commit sensitive information to your   
   software's care and expecting them to trust that you won't take a   
   peek. Why should anyone trust you?
