Emacs users, Org users on our mailing lists are not so private. Their
names and email addresses are in the public database. Spammer can
construct phishing type of an email, including something like Org news
or something and send such email to users. Among let us say 3000
people there will be percentage of users that will say Y to invoke the
local variables due to lack of knowing what is it doing to computer.
After that, anything becomes possible, including intrusion into
computer, capturing all email addresses, passwords, sending spam
emails from computer and so on.
