Another article slanting fact in the directions of the writers point of view.
I'm always amazed how these articles become newsworthy.
There must be a lull in real Security related news.....  ;D

I think the UK Banks would give them a run for their money, recently yet another load of potentially useful information is found in the banks bins. The bank in questions stated that there were no personal details in the documents, but it will implement measures so it doesn't happen again.

Thanks for the link OrangeCrate. I feel that the corporate leakage of information is a bad situation that is only going to get worse. Once again the key word is: MONEY
