There is a cash incentive for these geeks to "find" stuff on your computer. They are charging you by the hour to search your computer so they can turn you in to the FBI for a bonus. People have been prosecuted in the past for thumbnail images in the browser cache.

The computer technician handbooks of years back used to emphasize to never snoop around. So much for professionalism!

Seems to me that since corporations have been granted corporate personhood should they not be held liable for hosting or storing any similarly incriminating evidence or photos?

Had to read that 3-4 times to get which way you were going with it.

Every single former Director and Asst Director will be hanged at the end of this. That's just for starters.

And the same with Face Book, Google, Apple, Amazon, Yahoo, Microsoft, and every other provider. Ever hear of a NSL.

The only people taking their computers to Best Buy to be worked on are retards and old fucking boomers

That's funny. All the boomers I know build and repair their own PCs.

I have to laugh but this is not surprising.
Now that I think of it bits of that might have leaked before... The most paranoid keep turning out to be correct.

I read about this last year. It's good to see it getting more distribution. People should know who and who not to trust
