Did it come with a hard-drive filled with copies of every corporate document it had ever printed?

- tombert 5y agoYou know, I don't know...it might? I never opened it up enough to look for a hard drive.
- kingcharles 5y agoLOL. The amount of shit I've bought off eBay and Craigslist that hasn't been wiped is significant. And that's without being totally bogus and actually putting any effort into data recovery which would surely work on most devices. Phones were crazy. So. Much. Homemade. Porn.

- vangelis 5y agoHopefully they did the right thing and factory reset it.
- kingcharles 5y agoYes. I needed the phones clean. I had to buy up large numbers of random different handsets for testing SMS gateways.
- tombert 5y agoI've purchased used laptops that weren't wiped, and found fairly elaborate tax documents and other identifiable info on there that I could easily have abused. I'm not a douchebag, so I just wiped the disk and didn't do anything with it, but I suspect that there must be an entire industry of people buying used computers or hard drives on Ebay and stealing data off there.
- ComputerGuru 5y agoI just want to definitively confirm that such an industry exists. For some time, there were people buying used phones, recovering sexts, and extorting the sellers (whose name, email, phone, and address they now had courtesy of eBay).
