All they need to do is either
A) Switch the drives with new ones, and copy any individual markers etc on them or
B) Use an emp or strong magnet and stuff the drives.
With the technology nowadays, anything on a hard drive can be retrieved even after
multiple reformats. No doubt the advanced stuff the NSA has is far more effective, and
we can expect every year or so the technology to leapfrog forward so anyone with
access to the drives can retrieve anything which was ever on them, including
keystrokes and encryption.

DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER
==========
CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list. Proselytizing propagandic
screeds are unwelcomed. Substance—not soap-boxing—please! These are
sordid matters and 'conspiracy theory'—with its many half-truths, mis-
directions and outright frauds—is used politically by different groups with
major and minor effects spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought.
That being said, CTRLgives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and
always suggests to readers; be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no
credence to Holocaust denial and nazi's need not apply.
Let us please be civil and as always, Caveat Lector.
