I had no idea this issue had been identified. While I find this tool very useful, the project is seeming rather questionable to me now.

The IODD is basically a small drive enclosure, not a "stupid" USB drive.

I was more thinking of devices like this, this or this. Which have the simplicity of a normal USB device (just plug it in and go) and come with an automatically updating label so you can find the correct dongle.

But yeah, nowadays, I'd probably prefer the IODD thing.
