Lol. Why? What's the end goal of this design?

The money of edgy gamers would be my guess
And obviously gamers who never travel or go through airport security because they are permanently tethered to their home gaming system and if not their gaming system, then their personal single user high speed internet connection.
It's just a flash~~bang~~ drive, I swear
If you buy this and get stopped at airport security, you deserve a full cavity search.
Remember, kids, don’t hold your hard drive around cops.
Lenovo crowdfunding?
Just like videogame preorders, why invest when you can get dumbasses to fund the risk for you?
Gun and militia idiots will love this.
Gonna look great on that tacticool EDC belt brah
Airport security is gonna stop you for any bullshit anyway. I once got delayed because of 2 razorblades and had them taken away. I guess they wanted to make sure I wasn't gonna highjack the plane with a 1 inch blade that you can snap with your fingers.
