Are there people out there who are not factory resetting their phones before they trade them in?
…what?
There are people out there that don’t know where the settings on their phone are
There are people out there, a LOT, that don’t know how to power off a phone.
Same people using “Google” as their browser… 🙆
Samsung’s official service center refused to not wipe the phone after a screen replacement, because “procedures”. Paying extra wasn’t even an option! So I said “fuck them” and took my Note 9 to an independent repairman who did it at half the official price because he could separate broken glass from a working screen and replace just the former. I simply turned the phone off and trusted Samsung Secure Startup encryption before handing it over to the guy. That was the moment I thanked myself for turning on full-disk encryption.
