      Read about this yesterday, and from comments on the original Twitter post, it sounds more like CBP decided child porn was involved. Either they intentionally destroyed the floppy because they assumed that’s what it contained, or they thought the floppy was actually just hiding something else (such as a mini CD or DVD?)

      Thought that the floppy was some kind of case/packaging? That would be insane… but possible… OMG.

      Also, if customs destroys goods, because they are illegal, or whatever, they don’t usually send the pieces, do they? Without a notice too?!
