This is something you want to keep to yourself, at least until the hard drive in question is no longer in your posession and can’t be traced to you. Destroy it with a hammer before you toss it. A sledgehammer, or an axe. The magnetic disks themselves must be turned into trash, like the lid of an old tin can. Like confetti is better.

No worries, it was from 1995 or 96, computer is long gone, so is the hard drive

Just thinking, you prove my point quite nicely.

I should have and should be able to walk a computer that was infected without fear of what the hacker had put on the computer without any worry that the police/prosecutor would target me.

I might loose it, but I wouldn’t have a problem with them taking it and not returning it. As long as they get the bastards.

Will that work with an infected laptop?
