If the spies were passing on documents whats to stop them using the photocopier, if we want to keep it old tech, or the camscanner app on their phone if the spy wants to play a more up to date spy?

My typewriter experiences go back to the 1960s/70s, playing on my mothers machine on a rare visit to her office.

Unless I put my figures through an intensive strengthening work out at the finger gym I think I'll just leave this one.
