Osama bin Laden raid yields trove of computer dataThe assault force of Navy SEALs snatched a trove of computer drives and disks during their weekend raid on Osama bin Laden’s compound, yielding what a U.S. official called "the mother lode of intelligence.” The special operations forces grabbed personal computers, thumb drives and electronic equipment during the lightning raid that killed bin Laden, officials told POLITICO. "They cleaned it out,” one official said. "Can you imagine what’s on Osama bin Laden’s hard drive? |

So, if my Farmville was next to OBL's Farmville do you guys think I'll be in trouble. Whenever I found a lost lamb I always sent it back over to him.

OK, who else thought they found a treasure trove of Core i7 990Xs???

On that note: Since Osama got whacked, 4chan has been down. |

His Brains would be my first guess... Camel Porn is my second educated guess .. Also, not in any certain order... "How-To" PDF "Traumatic Brain Injuries" caused by SEAL flippers. NASCAR Fantasy League Prentice Hall's "Pre-Hospital Emergency Care of Cranial Evacuation:Treating Military Caliber Bullet Wounds and an understanding of Terminal Ballistics" Eighth Edition "How-To" PDF "3 Easy Steps to Becoming A Thai Lady-Boy" "How-To" PDF "Maintaining your cover while hiding from the most well trained, pissed off, SPEC-OPS and .Mil INTEL OPERATOR-ing bad asses alive" "How-To" PDF "Building Your Own Camel Dung Hideout while hiding from 300 149 Million Pissed off Americans" Finally, Finally "The Islamic Terrorist's Guide to Hell and The Afterlife:.. Accepting the fact of finding out there are NO virgins waiting on you!!! Sucker! ".. |

Quoted: Didn't they say that his compound didn't have internetz? Don't have to have the internet to use a computer. |

He probably used them for storage only................I bet they got lists of names and locations and future operation plans...........some more heads are gonna explode soon!

My favorite quote from that article:
Officials described the reaction of the special operators when they were told a number of weeks ago that they had been chosen to train for the mission.
“They were told, ‘We think we found Osama bin Laden, and your job is to kill him,’” an official recalled. The SEALs started to cheer. |

I am assuming that the info will be translated on on Wikileaks by morning?

Or...maybe this is disinformation. All of these Al-Quida types are probably relocating and changing codes and communication channels right now, following SOP layed down before this not quite tragic event.
If they think that those Standard Operating Procedures are also compromised they might ditch them, too. That would make reassembling Al-Quida much more difficult. Maybe we found nothing, but by telling the world that UBL failed to follow his own security protocols we can get almost the same effects. Steve |

Let's hope he was dumb enough to leave everything unencrypted. It wouldn't matter Nope. Just for the sake of argument –– are you suggesting that the US Government has backdoors into the most recent encryption algorithms? Everything I've read about it has basically stated that once you reach a certain level of encryption, barring some kind of shortcut/rainbow tables/back door, no one is getting in without the password. |

Bet it includes connections to half the Pakistani and afghan governments.

I think they would have been better to keep mum about what they found.

Any code small enough to be run by a PC, can be brute forced in at most a month or two by using one or more of those mothers. |

Lets hope that we hear about missile strikes around the globe very soon.

Let's hope he went with ROT 13. There are all sorts of ways to speed it up, rather than simple random brute-force. If you know your target, and are clever about how you guess, you can shorten the "end of time" duration significantly. |

OBL's henchmen throughout the world are probably shitting bricks trying to set up all new safe-houses. |
