I care - because I'm an evil hacker who wants _undetected_ , _long-term_ access to said machine. Stealing the machine or its drive is neigh useless, and in fact totally counter productive. It's like killing the goose that would otherwise be laying golden eggs for me. Also, a logical fallacy: Since X could sometimes be used to thwart Y, then Y is useless in all cases.
