That sounds good, but if I were a government spook looking to browse through the data remains of somebody’s discarded hard drive, I’d set up a company just like that.

I'd be more worried if my competitors got to it. I seriously doubt a terrorist would trust such a service.

You’re right. Which begs the question, if enough palms were greased at one of these ‘data destruction’ companies, would it result in data NOT being destroyed but forwarded on to any interested parties?

The best way to destroy your system’s data is to do it yourself.

Just install the next Microsoft security patch. LOL
