One of the PhD programs I applied to sent a “gift basket” in the mail that included a shirt and letter. At the bottom of the letter there was a taped Flash Drive, which seemed suspicious because it was completely unmentioned in the contents of the letter.
I’m not actually concerned that a PhD program is attempting to maliciously take over my computer, but I’m generally curious as to whether someone can create a USB drive to automatically execute a windows program or install malicious drivers while seeming like a generic driver.
