Canary Trap

a method for exposing an information leak by giving different versions of a sensitive document to each of several suspects and seeing which version gets leaked.

The government needed to find their employee leaking information to the media so they setup a canary trap by giving each suspected employee a slightly different story.

digital canary

Sealing one or both nostrils while voiding excrement in a closed space (as with a finger). Following excretion, the seal is removed. This allows an accurate measure of the space's ambient odor.

"Chicks are the chess of deucin'. Courtesy flushes, lipstick lighters, crap gaskets, digital canary… She presses one nostril shut the whole time, then uses the fresh nostril to gauge things at the end. Like a pregnancy test."
