When I installed my outlet, there were two wires.
I figure that, whatever the type of ground it may be, it should use a third wire, right?
Plus : the surge protection of my computer has a red LED for ground (would be green if grounded).
Last question : except for lack of shielding, what are the risks in using a device that should be grounded but is not (knowing that so many electric and electronic devices are built without a grond prung)?
