Security Be Damned.

 It's crucial that highly sensitive documents and paperwork be retrieved if ever they escape their ordained location.

   Last year, I was mailed, along with my Social Security statement, the extensive account of another person. I notified SSA and offered to destroy the mis-sent account, but 2 SSA spokespersons were adamant that I should  return the other person's paperwork, even sending a prepaid envelope for that purpose.

   I followed their directive, but of course I could have made many copies of that missive if I had chosen to.

   And so could copies of secure information have been made, right? Real-life spies use their cameras for that all the time, discreetly, I understand.
