Countermeasuere – flip your documents top and bottom so that a scanner cant see anything and insert fluff with what you are shredding

Well, if your shredder gives off wireless transmissions….

Actually, wireless transmissions have technical issues of their own. (i.e. metal built into the walls of a building, microwave interference, etc) I would build memory ‘chips’ into the device itself and then download or transmit the shredded/scanned documents at a later date.

Absolutely! If you travel overseas on business ALWAYS expect that you are being assigned to a room reserved for foreigners and that that room is completely bugged. Expect that any niceties that are easily available for a business person to be suspect.

I faxed something one time and the machine errored out. When I started troubleshooting the problem, I discovered that the machine was actually sending two copies in the background to other phone numbers.

Interestingly, I have my money in a Ginnie Mae fund, and I didn’t lose much. Even got dividends. Must be the only housing investment that works. (The money is there to buy a house, actually.)

watching bailout hearings yesterday, the idea that Chris Dodd was asking questions, and Paulson said taxpayer “on the hook” was surreal. Throw them all out.

It wouldn’t surprise me at all if such things already exist and are being used for spying…

What better way to get the most vital information than to electronically transmit images of the very documents deemed soo sensitive that they must be shredded?

Shredding is presumably done in order to prevent those documents from being seen by others…

Putting “bugs” in shredders is an absolutely brilliant idea.

Has it been done before?
