I was waiting for this example to pop up. It illistrates a very good
point. People dont check the facts before believing what the papers say.
The laptops contained data that had been scrambled, i.e. bank details
where random numbers and also no personal data, NI numbers being random
combinations and no address data, not even real first name surname combos.
Also they stole the laptops by breaking them, to leave the bits secured
to the desk behind.
