And THAT is why that system was gotten rid of in HAVA and new standards were put in place. And even in those succeeding 20+ years, the standards need further updates as the tech changes and improves. Right now there are potential issues of chain of custody when data is being saved on USB sticks (I'm assuming with an "Ironkey" type encryption). At some point in the distant future, it will probably all be done "online".
