IR watches were always hilarious at school. I suspect in pubs too.


Every few years, some auditor would always flip out about IR data transfer. It would always get escalated because none of the frontline IT people had heard of it.

I’d always chuckle thinking of the boogeyman bad actor employee who decided to exfiltrate customer data to a circa 1999 palm pilot at 9600 baud via IR instead of the dozens of easier methods available.
