People forget, my ex sold her laptop on eBay, but forgot to wipe it and it had a bunch of nudes she had sent me over the years on it. After she realized what she did she told him to wipe the computer because she forgot to ๐คฆโโ๏ธ this was like a decade ago before BitLocker/encryption was standard on most laptops. The dude definitely saw her naked.
I had a friend leave her laptop with me for some maintenance. I think it was probably a reformat or something? I return her laptop, and she asks "have you seen my photos in folder X on the desktop?". I responded "no, why would I". She went "oh, such a shame" and made a "cartoonish" pouty face. From the conversation that followed, they were "raunchy".
Like, bruh, I won't be looking into your data. Want me to see something, send it to me straight, don't expect me to snoop around lol
Yeah. We're stupid. Title the folder "/c/Maalus look here" and we might
Still wouldn't tbh if it wasn't relevant, i.e. if she asked to save specific data from that folder
I've been asked to help a couple save/recover their porn folder. Harder not to see at that point.
