I'm the same way. I'm not at all curious about the content of my (former) bf's computer, but at the same time he was never possessive or secretive about it, either. There were times when he was at work and needed me to look for things on his computer so I would start it up, find what he needed and shut it back down. I do think that when there is an understanding that there is porn your spouse's computer and you have no qualms about the porn then you are, in general, less curious about the content of your spouse's computer. Unless of course there is something you are suspicious of such as infidelity or crime.

If a computer is shared property, you gotta have some trust, or take steps, as Jazz and MM have mentioned. I think the argument in this particular news story is going to be that the computer was shared property, not the email account... which in itself is a little different that the OP, so in an attempt to keep from derailing the thread, I'll shut up, but it was interesting.
That is interesting. And I can't say that I agree with those charges...but I suppose if the circumstances were different I might be persuaded to see it differently.
