Blown to Bits Ch. 3

In this chapter, it talks about the old disks that were used in computers. They belonged to a certain person from the syrian government. There was a story about the former Prime Minister of Lebanese. They accused his brother, the former, commander of the Republican Guard. They discovered that in his computer was secrets that showed them the truth of who killed the Lebanese prime minister. They made him erase his history and change computers. Years later, they bought those disks and found out some interesting things. What surprised me the most about this chapter is that we think that we can actually erase things from our computers but in reality they don’t. The things you erase can really never be erased unless it’s erased from the actual disks.
