This Week's Quote: "The invention of firearms equalized the vassal and the noble on the field of battle; the art of printing opened the same resources to the minds of all classes; the post brought knowledge alike to the door of the cottage and to the gate of the palace." —Alexis de Tocqueville

For their next "trick", the government of Maryland will attempt to tax the sun...

In the meantime: why isn't the news from the Gitmo now more prominent beyond this and a few other places? (I know, rhetorical). As to your suggestion about information storage: I suspect that the federal crooks will simply imprison the lawyers instead.
Meh

And, being that these are military computers, it's probably a criminal offense to connect any kind of external storage device to them.

Good point. But they need to be able to do something to preserve anonymity. Encrypt their files perhaps? That wouldn't solve the problem of them disappearing, though.

I don't know if it's possible to do with military computers, but one can always email it to oneself from the home computer, and access it from the government computer accordingly: it's a common trick from when I was in College, when I'd feel too lazy to fetch my USB. therefore, no need for either a USB, or relying on government computers. assuming you can even access your email from there.


which frankly raises another question: why do they have to store it on a government computer in the first place? don't tell me they can't do that!
Meh

Generally speaking, access to the internet from military computers is extremely restricted, and external email is one of those things very tightly controlled.  They certainly aren't going to be happy about using external email to transfer what they're going to claim are classified military documents.  The fact that there are only a very tiny number of people permitted to access them, and none of them are superiors of the people handling them, doesn't enter into it.
