This is interesting. Sony Develops Paper-Based Disc
"In a Blu-ray Disc the recording layer on which the data is stored lies under a 0.1 millimeter protective layer and on top of a 1.1 millimeter thick substrate. The substrate, or basic surface on which a material adheres, is usually made of a polycarbonate plastic, but the new disc replaces this with paper. The result is a disc of which paper makes up approximately 51 percent of its weight, Sony says."

"The paper disc can also be more easily cut with a pair of scissors and that will make it much easier for users to destroy discs, and thus protect their data, when disposing of unneeded discs, he says."
Weird argument. If only this technology was available to Enron. Dispose of your info easily. *snip snip*

Self grenading HDs would probably be more use to them (and peadophiles, hackers, people who use computers for white collar crime, etc.). Maybe a BIOS option (passworded of course)?
Mind you, if they became common, countries would start legislating against doing it (even if they weren't made illegal) in much the same way that refusing to give out your private key is currently.

Too easy to damage, surely? If you accidentally folded one in half it'd be fucked.
