    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 :)
