    FancyPants101 got a reaction from Kilrah in College recruitment database leaking nearly 1 million students’ GPAs, SAT scores, IDs, and other personal data   
    This stuff needs to start being considered intentional by companies and their employees and dealt with accordingly. That is how you deal with this sort of thing responsibly. Data is not secure from the inside. This is one method. You don't need to prove intent. Intent is just incompetency when someone does it long enough to be sleezy. That is how you deal with liars and incompetency to stop people from lieing(feigning incompetency) and then doing it more. One is just an extremity of the other.
     
    We basically know tech industries have been blackmaled out of positions. You can guess why(At least part of it.). (BTW, blackmail in the US is supposed to make any info and evidence from the blackmaile illegal to to use in court to stop abuses. The government not doing this is a literal conspiracy and must be treated as such by law in regards to the government. On top of other things US law is primarily designed to stop corruptions from and using the government. What you might call corruption in high places.)
     
    The use of blackmale data is a base issue the judicial system and congress cannot change without being violators of the law. It's automatic. They just say otherwise to convince people it's legal and carry out crimes.

    FancyPants101 got a reaction from Mr. Cucumber in Ram as a flashdrive?   
    Oh, that would be interesting. Just make it out of ram that is also capped at the same data transfer rate(or more for future proofing). If lower transfer would it be low capacity though? If anything you could actually make a ramdisk that way. ? It could be powered by the USB instead of a battery for a volatile version for temporary use as say cache ram to save speed on the HDD. And it would allow lots of additional ram on the system you couldn't get otherwise potentially. Or does USB not give enough power? IF so keep it plugged in with a battery that can be charged/kept topped off in the USB until removable for temporary transfer. Do any batteries have the ability to keep it going? It could work as short term transferable ram potentially. If longer battery power exists it could be more.
     
    That would be very useful potentially as addon ram to the system. I have an annoying cache file on linux I could dump for one of those. Never need a cache partition again! >< (or cache file)
     
    I could also add on an additional total system ram if it lets you. I have some old 1-2gb sticks laying around. Several of them actually. And lots of Esata power USB2.0 connectors on the back of my mobo.... Like 12 of them. 8d
