So that's my rant. There is an advanced technological society that makes data retrieval by robot arms through human hands where the data is in almost impossible to access locations. It just bothered me a bit, and seemed dumb to have :P
What do you think?

Haven't seen rouge one yet, but I had the same basic problem with the beginning of the force awakens. The best way to get the map to the rebellion is for Poe to fly a spaceship through emipre-controlled space to jakku, get the map, then manually shuttle it back through empire-controlled space to the rebel base in a space ship.

Like, do they not have PGP in the future?
