Flash Drives...

I probably think this is much funnier than it really is...

Here's yer lede:

BAGRAM, Afghanistan — No more than 200 yards from the main gate of the sprawling U.S. base here, stolen computer drives containing classified military assessments of enemy targets, names of corrupt Afghan officials and descriptions of American defenses are on sale in the local bazaar.


So, William Gibson and Neal Stephenson weren't writing Science Fiction, per se, it turns out...

I want to know how long large multi-national corporations have had private agents scouring the back alleys of Karachi and Bagdad buying USB flash memory and drives with sensitive American industrial and miliary information on them...
