On Tuesday, Britain's M16 intelligence service reported that a camera with information regarding al Qaeda suspects, including names of members, fingerprints and suspects academic record, as well as pictures of rocket launchers and missiles, was misplaced, lost, or unethically sold secretly."Media reports said the Nikon digital camera was put up for sale on Internet trading site eBay and sold for just 17 pounds ($30.64)." The camera was seized after a public figure reported it. The British say its under investigation, further more, "The incident is the latest in a series of embarrassing data losses to affect the intelligence services and the government."
I find it hard to believe that something such as a camera with important information on it can just go missing, especially when it was in the hands of the British M16 intelligence, which is equivalent to the CIA? But then with that comparison Its understandable I suppose?
