Your first line of protection may very well be something like this [condom USB stick](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/goat-condom). In an age when our work and hobbies occupy the digital sphere, it's important to ensure that our files are safe. Playing off of this notion of protection, the maker of these [funny flash drives](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/raspberry-pi-flash-drive) suggests that personal crises can be prevented with this little doodad. Just as a real prophylactic rubber safeguards from infections, this thumbdrive keeps data clean and separate in case a virus infiltrates your computer.

Modeled on the individually wrapped STD-obstructing sleeves of [Trojan Condoms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dr-squatch-x-trojan), these silicone imitations have the familiar silvery backgrounds and the patterns of stamped blue logos, here just reading "condoms."
