Odd. I rather doubt that any of the incriminating information he sought to avoid discovery of was actually on that chip. Thinking about it though, given the massive headaches about disposing of crypto modules and key dongles properly once they are obsolete or broken, perhaps there is a market for edible ones?

I can see the headlines now! "TERRORISTS USING EDIBLE UNDERWEAR FOR IMMORAL PURPOSES!" and the Cypherpunks headline: "FBI getting their panties in a bunch over a bunch of panties" Makes the "Crypto on a t-shirt" nonsense seem alot less absurd in comparison. Interesting how the "common citizen" is starting to have to use the methods of spys and novels to keep information out of the hands of people that want to harm them. My question is: "Do I get to be the white spy or the black spy?". ]:> --- | Terrorists - The Boogiemen for a new Millennium. | |"The moral PGP Diffie taught Zimmermann unites all| Disclaimer: | | mankind free in one-key-steganography-privacy!" | Ignore the man | | | behind the keyboard.| | http://www.ctrl-alt-del.com/~alan/ |alan@ctrl-alt-del.com|
