Re: [PLUG] Securely destroy and responsibly recycling hardware

[Paul Walker <pjwalker76@gmail.com>]

I still imagine my hardware sitting in a landfill, waiting for the day when our encryption standards have become trivial to bypass.

At this point in the conversation people start to say things like: "Well, if you really need your data to be THAT safe then you shouldn't be generating it." But this isn't the case. I don't NEED the data to be safe from future eyes, I WANT the data to be safe. Beyond what I need or want I'm just curious if this is practical from a technical perspective - to utterly destroy data.
