I recently reformatted a hard drive and these were some of the options OS X’s Disk Utility gave me.

Why not a 100-Pass erase of data? You would think that writing zeroes over your entire fucking HD would be enough to erase any data on it. Apparently not, which kind of undermines the whole binary data system if writing 0′s over your whole HD doesn’t actually delete the 1′s and 0′s already there.
