To protect your privacy, Thunderbird has blocked remote content in this message

To protect your privacy, Thunderbird has blocked remote content in this message

Every time that happens, and that's almost every second e-mail, I have to go to "options, show remote content in this message"

I don't understand how Thunderbird will protect me by not showing the content in the e mail sent to me. The content that I can see just a same by going to "options, show remote content in this message" or any of the other options there.

I just can't see the logic in that.

It can't protect you from yourself if you decide to display it. http://kb.mozillazine.org/Privacy_basics_(Thunderbird)
