Yeah, if I run my own business and have my own email servers behind a VPN, no way in hell PDFs on that server are being indexed.

But now, if an employee opens a PDF in an email attachment and the file is sent out to Google's severs for OCR processing?? That's a huge breach of security.

We should be able to expect that what we open in our web browsers stays local.
