    As someone who runs a shop much like the one claiming to have been used by Hunter, when people leave their devices we don’t get to do whatever we want with their data.

      No doubt. I’m not saying anything in support of the guys who capitalized on the laptop. I’m just talking about how you can even forget you dropped off a laptop for service. May be its because I don’t have the fuck you money he probably has, but it’s mind boggling to me.

        Tbh I still don’t understand how people can leave their shit but we’ve got shelves full of devices we’ve fixed and no one answers the call to pick it up. There’s a laptop sitting on the shelf that’s been here longer than me and I’ve met the customer multiple times they just always say “I’ll be back in a couple weeks for it.”

      Worked in a shady little PC repair shop.

      If the owner was in one of the stores, he would “personally oversee” shall we say data retention? If the customer was a young (legal, as in not CP, but creepy age difference) woman.

      Yeah, he backed up their data and looked for nudes. I was too young to know how to handle it, so when he said he couldn’t pay me (even after it was due) I told him to fuck off.

      I hope he fucked one of the day time strippers he spent most of his “office time” (the office being a strip club) with and wound up with an incurable STD.

      I hope his wife found out. I hope she took him for everything.
