Some people don’t even realize that their cell phone’s SIM card, contacts, photos and other private information should be properly destroyed when switching to a phone — simply erasing things usually isn’t enough, according to Steve Sturgeon of Confidential Data Destruction.
“As technology has changed, and changed so rapidly over the last 10 years, how many times have you changed from one laptop to another?” Sturgeon said. “That hard drive that’s in the laptop that you’re leaving, it doesn’t erase anything when you leave it. You can try to erase it or remove some of the things, but basically that hard drive is full of everything that you had.”
