Is a secret still a secret if you tell it to a friend? Of course it isn’t, it is a little spiky sea mine, itching to blow up every time people get drunk or fall in love. And sooner or later it explodes, killing friendships, hurting feelings.

Crush Box is a little evil machine made for one purpose only- to destroy information. There are  of course better, cheaper, more advanced, less barbaric solitions to do the same thing. Crush Box, however, has one very serious advantage- it is visual. You see the holes in the harddrive and you know with absolute certainty that no one, ever, will read it again.
