Identity Theft OFFLINE - Get ready to be VERY scared

(1/6) > >>

Renegade:
Get ready to be very scared...



Now, how many people still have clean underwear?

mouser:
this goes way beyond the dangers of identity theft, and is so outrageous and could have been entirely foreseen as a huge security risk by copy machine makers..

in fact it reeks of a purposeful "bug" in the system put in place for national security reasons. ironic that it's ending up backfiring on the security/police organizations.

lanux128:
scary.. all copiers should have a disk wipe program as part of the package, not a $500 option.

Deozaan:
Count me as among those who didn't realize copy machines had a hard drive in them. Scary indeed!

Though I'm left wondering how prevalent that is. Would, for instance, my little HP All-In-One home printer also have a hard drive in it? How about my Brother MFC-7840W?

Or is this just a "feature" of "commercial-grade" copiers?

Renegade:
Gross negligence? Criminal negligence? It's beyond insane.
