Technological Innovation and Drug-smuggling

There's research to be done on technological innovation and organised crime. Here's a Washington Post article on "submersibles" that can transport cocaine considerable distances underwater.
Todd Sandler years ago wrote a piece in APSR trying to calculate how long it took terrorists to adapt to technological changes introduced by security forces. This raises similar challenges for organised crime. Maybe the Camorra will be first to the moon in an effort to dispose of garbage!
