Now if you want to smuggle data use a satellite phone with modem and send it to whomever needs it.

Re: benzinha
Wiley, as my Homeland grows more secure Uber Alles, I know that I feel better about hounding tourists at our borders.
In fact, I will suggest to my Legislators that we stop all tourism into the USA. Yup, that oughtta make us totally secure and give us warm and fuzzy safe feeling.

Re: Copy the info to removable media and carry it in your pocket or carry-on.
majroj, the 'report abuse' which follows all comments was not following yours and I wondered whether you had forcibly removed it?!?!? Funny thinking when majroj is in the vicinity.
My feeling is that, if they suspect you of corporate espionage, they will check your pockets and suitcases for jump sticks and external hard drives, etc., anyway, no?

Copy the info to removable media and carry it in your pocket or carry-on.
If TSA can snag your bag and read it, so can a common thief or industrial spy. If the info is proprietary top secret, find secure ways to handle it, not carrying it around ready for some eighteen year old hacker to peek into it.
