Another day, another story about how insecure our information is in this information age. Information Week reports on the Commerce Dept. losing 1,137 laptop computers since 2001, with 249 of them containing personally identifiable information. Here’s a pretty good BetaNews piece about it, too, which also details some numbers about lost computers and other data devices in other government agencies.

You can do anything and everything and then some to protect yourself against identity theft. Sadly, that will never be enough.
