Pretty cute... but... what's the point?

Maybe so that someone who may be looting your house for data thinks it is worthless cable and doesn't steal it?  :tellme:

lol, that would be pretty funny to make. I could take it over to my friend's house, and pull it out, and he would think I was weird for carrying around a broken usb cable until I plugged it in and it had data on it.
