Sadly, people will just stick this, and any random USB device into their computers. I can't remember the company in question, but there was a story about a security audit where the hacker team got in by handing out free USB drives in the parking lot.

I heard the story attributed to Lawrence Livermore National Labs, and they have fairly strict security (ie men with machine guns, lots of trainig). Probably has to do with the plutonium...

It's a good thing you can't smuggle plutonium on a pendrive... At least not out of LLNL.

yeah, but you probably would have to stand out there for several minutes before that would work at most companies :-)

They could probably just "drop" them on the cement and someone would pick it up.

In at least one security audit, that was exactly what happened:
