Does anyone remember what the device was called that was a little Linux subsystem in a USB adapter that would allow you to transfer data from the USB port to the Linux subsystem to the PC's USB port?

 

That way if a USB drive is infected the worst it can do is infect the linux subsystem.

 

I thought they called them USB condoms but searching for that brings up charge only devices.

I think the idea I heard behind a "USB condom" was basically an extension cable with the data lines disconnected.

 

What you're describing sounds more like maybe the LAN Turtle or Rubber Ducky by Hak5?
