Even before that, in Poland, messages were put on floppy disks then 
erased.  In DOS an erased file is not erased but the first letter in the 
file is changed to a ? and the disk space is returned to the pool of 
available space.  It is easy to unerase.  Party officials had no idea how 
computers worked so all they saw was a blank disk.
