It seems counterintuitive that the cap to a wooden USB fob handed out at

or other media it is near?

I have an 8 GB USB fob which was handed out to senior company workers
by FABRIS of Canada. It's metal and the cap seems to have a magnetic
attraction to the body of the fob. I see no problem with this as the
media is not erased by magnetism. Also the only attraction seems to be
between the fob and the cap. If you are uber paranoid, toss it in the bin.
Or keep it and keep it isolated from other magnetic media.
