You wouldn't wipe your phone turning it in, even a work phone?
- loonster 5y agoAs a routine practice, yes. If my phone was subpoenaed (or likely to be in the future), wiping my phone would be against the law. I would only do so if the risk was worth it.

- jes 5y agoTheir phones were to be surrendered as part of an investigation. Wiping them is destroying records. It’s different if you’re just returning a work phone, or preparing to sell or transfer a personal phone. When members of a group do it more or less en masse, it implies that they have something to hide.
- c0nducktr 5y ago> Their phones were to be surrendered as part of an investigation. Wiping them is destroying records. Yeah, isn't that very literally obstruction of justice?
