I was at Otakon this year, and I saw this case mod! It moved and lit up and everything! The pictures barely do it justice. It was fantastic!

In a world of ID Theft I think that it is terrible irresponsible of DL.TV to provide the name of software that can assemble the pieces of people's shredded documents. I think that a mention that it can be done would be smart to let people know and be aware of, but to offer up a name is like handing over the key to the bank to a criminal. Completely terrible.

I need my shredded credit card statement for insurance verification, Brian. I have a legitimate use for this technology and will not be stealing another's identity.

You do not need to expect the worst in people.

Not expecting the worse in people...just not giving the worst the upper hand. I know there are legitimate uses for the software. Let's face it, Mike...you may be on the receiving end of some ID theft sometime (I hope not) and you would wish this was not something that was common knowledge.
