"‘Dead Drops’ is an anonymous, offline, peer to peer file-sharing network in public space. USB flash drives are embedded into walls, buildings and curbs accessible to anybody in public space. Everyone is invited to drop or find files on a dead drop. Plug your laptop to a wall, house or pole to share your favorite files and data. Each dead drop is installed empty except a readme.txt file explaining the project. ‘Dead Drops’ is open to participation. If you want to install a dead drop in your city/neighborhood follow the ‘how to’ instructions and submit the location and pictures. I  am a Berlin based media artist and started  the ‘Dead Drops’ project during my stay in NYC at EYEBEAM as artist in residence, October 2010. Dead Drops was part of the show “Talk to Me” at the MoMA  July-Nov 2011." - CW

Law & Order SVU would have a child trafficking angle or something. - bentley

I could see Castle using one and dorking out over it. OOOH - "The Blacklist" could use them as part of the Fulcrum plot. - Corinne L

looks like a great way to infect the devices of idiots with exploits. srsly, this is the computing equivalent of unprotected gloryhole sex. EDIT: for the tender-eared innocent, a definition: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define... - Big Joe Silenced
