PCWorld staff are offenders here too

Heresee maybe, but I've heard gossip from people about staff working at PCWorld in the UK who have their own external HDD's in the workplace to rip off and collect personal pron of users taking their pc's in to repair. If these are posted on the web then these guys should be prosecuted, pure and simple. Make them criminals! Where does everyone think most of the amateur pron on the web comes from anyway? Of course the majority is stolen (outside of Quantum sites)

I've come across this sort of stuff before when repairing peoples pc's and whilst I might initially giggle, I don't copy the data and give friendly advice about encryption for the future to protect their blushes. Although once, since I took finding what I did so well, I was asked by a user to edit their home movies and burn to dvd's for playback on their homes dvd player. I had to turn them down, citing the fact that constantly running clips over over as part of the editing process into one smooth timeline was liable to harm my own brain irretrievably :)
