    I had an old Windows Phone I recycled years ago. It had nothing on it since I had migrated everything to Google a while earlier. Instead of wiping it, I dropped it at the recycling place in Vancouver.

    Imagine my surprise when I get an automated email 6 months later saying someone just tried logging into my Microsoft account on that device from Shenzhen, China.

    Wipe your shit, folks! It’s good advice inside and outside the bathroom.
