I don't think people realize what all techs look at when you take your computer in for repair.
One of the SO's in our group worked for a computer repair company and talked about a co-worker who captured any porn he could find on client's computers.

Mark Scott Albaugh (Denver District Attorney's office)A 45-year-old registered sex offender, who allegedly admitted he had more than 70 pictures of naked children posing or engaged in sexual intercourse stored on his computer, has been charged with two counts of sexual exploitation of children.
The man, Mark Scott Albaugh, was arrested after employees at the Verizon Wireless Store, 951 16th St., Denver, alerted police to child pornography on Albaugh's computer.
The Denver district attorney's office said an examination of the man's computer yielded more than 1,000 files of alleged child pornography.
The employees at the Verizon store told investigators they saw photographs of nude children — approximately 6 to 7 years of age — engaged in various sex acts.
Albaugh brought his computer to the Verizon store for repairs on July 12. When he returned on July 16, saying his computer would not turn on, the employees called the police.
During a pat down search of Albaugh, a spiral noteboook containing the addresses of pornography websites was recovered, according to court documents.
On Nov. 30, Denver police received a report the Rocky Mountain Regional Computer Forensics Laboratory about the examination of Albaugh's computer.
The report said that the examiner found 1,188 files of suspected possible child pornography along with seven video files of suspected child pornography.
Police examined the images and videos. Investigators said that the children appear to be between the ages of 6 to 16 and were being sexually assaulted by adult males.
Albaugh remains in custody in the Denver Detention Center. His bond is set at $15,000.
