A reader from Norfolk writes to say that NMCI is considering disabling the USB ports on NMCI seats.
This is supposedly in response to users attaching "thumb" drives and external hard disk drives in an effort to increase storage space without paying exorbitant NMCI lease fees for larger hard drives.
Although this would not be surprising, one would have to ask how they are going to deal with the USB mice if they completely disable the ports. Perhaps a restricted driver subset. Or, perhaps its just a rumor. You heard it here first.
