Are the pagers physically inspected each time to make sure that they really are one-way models? The only pager I was ever issued was two-way. Seems like if you don't trust the people to not sneak data out, you shouldn't trust them to bring their own devices in which just happen to _look_ like regular pagers. Biggest argument for pagers thus seems to be "smartphones can be compromised, carriers don't bother maintaining them to avoid being an attractive nuisance, don't let remotely programmable microphones and cameras in". -Phil _______________________________________________ Tech mailing list Tech@lists.lopsa.org https://lists.lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tech This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
