Let Your Fingers Do The Stalking

Warning: If you're a fan of 24 but haven't yet seen the two episodes broadcast this week, this post contains some spoilers you may not yet want to know about; otherwise, use your mouse to highlight the grayed-out text and read the post in its entirety.

For the past few weeks on 24, Jack Bauer and his team at the Counter-Terrorism Unit have been furiously searching for a man named Stephen Saunders, a Los Angeles-based terrorist who has hijacked the presidency by threatening to release a highly contagious and deadly virus throughout the United States. So far they've traced his encrypted bank transfers, sent a strike team to the apartment that led to, and, when that turned out to be a decoy, they went so far as to kidnap his daughter to extract information from her. No luck yet.

One has to wonder if they've tried some of the more traditional sources of information.
