"Officer, I am telling you those are my ABS! I've just been hitting the gym a lot. Hey, don't lift up my shirt."
How the hell did this guy think he was gonna bypass the scanner?
Sometimes I wonder if these people are paid to do stupid shit like this knowing it’ll cause a distraction while the real smuggling operation is going through
It's the cost of doing business. You know you will be caught and you know how much they love to make big deals out of it, so... Adapt and overcome

This makes the most sense to me. I was having trouble understanding the motive / risk-assessment, but this seems plausible. Thanks.
Abdominal Backup System (ABS)
Yep, you just made my comment way better XD
You could say, he was caught flashing.
Actually he didn't get arrested because of the SSDs, what got him in trouble was 420 TB of Winnie the pooh pictures.
Of which 96.7% are rule 34 artistic renderings.
Nothing beats the bandwidth of a ~~VW bus full of mag tape~~ man with SSDs taped to his stomach.
Edit: You guys don't have strike through markdown yet?
You would have thought he would have been fast enough to outrun the cops.
Should have smuggled some ram as well.

Offsite backup. However it ran into a security problem.
It’s weird that he’s smuggling just the cards by themselves. That’s potentially up to an exabyte of data. Can be either filled with something, or at least have something hidden among all that storage space.
Would it really be worth it smuggling the cards alone that way?
More than likely he was smuggling in or out data for corporate espionage.
Yeah, that’s what I’m thinking. Like, it feels like at least some shenanigans must be afoot :)
That’s not how you can avoid dementia
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
