Spy suspects allegedly used regular consumer tech

Recently, this week, few suspected Russian spies have been arrested by the FBI. These Russian spies averred of relying more on the shelf consumer electronics for their mission. The frequent consultant of the FBI, Sujeet Shenoi stated that earlier there was unique KGB-type equipment and now it is the high tech computers, laptops etc. It is the gift of science, that the technology has improved and become so powerful that now, there is no more necessity of special purpose equipment. The 11 suspects arrested so far, by the FBI had array of tools which subsume laptops, the flash memory cards and moreover everyone had at least one mobile phone prepaid. However, the suspects made use of all the old-fashioned spy technology i.e. the short-wave radios, the invisible ink, and the one time pad method, which is a classic and manual encryption. Earlier, at homes, the Short-wave radios were quite common. The Russian suspects used the gadgets in such a method that unveiled the FBI agents easily as they had been following them for a while now. Even the high tech equipments like the surveillance cameras and the Wi-Fi sniffing are of no use when it comes to the old fashioned expensive and risky technology such as the tailing and the house searches. Thus, the old-fashioned spying equipments work better and can also compete of with the high-tech.
