Even with the strips of paper from a standard shredder, it will take a very long time in terms of computing (days/weeks/months?) to work out which strips go together. I seem to remember that some archive is restoring strips of paper from the Germans relating to the activities of their security service in one of the major world wars.

A secretary was working late one night, and as she went to Ladies room before packing up and going home, she passed a senior member of management standing at the shredder, empty handed. A few minutes later she was returning, and he was still there. He stopped her and asked "Where do the copies come out?" An unshredder would probably have come in handy at that company.

I say it times for cross cut shredders that shred into 2mmx2mm squares so the average identity thief just moves onto someone who doesn't have a shredder. Who knows, we may be re-shredding to beat the unshredder. I wonder if it works with cross cut shredders as well.

I say the 'DeShredder' should be banned! Sounds a bit too scary for my liking, especially with the massive influx in fraudsters trying to grab hold of your identity.
