It's not just the FBI, of course. There are press reports this morning
of a new worm, Badtrans.b, that not only leaves behind a Trojan horse,
it includes a keystroke logger. Now, that particular leakage isn't a
major concern, since it emails the stolen text to an account that's now
been shut down, but I'm sure we can all think of other ways to export
information like that.
