Discussion Wiping devices

[Wyldfyre4948]

How important is it to some people to wipe devices or factory reset them?

Considering my wife will probably get everything after I meet my maker I don't expect her to go snooping for anything. Even if she did she'd probably find more porn than anything on my laptop, ipad, and phone. I might do a minor scrub but nothing too crazy just in case I have some pics or videos that nobody else has. Hell I found a voicemail from my grandmother years ago on an old phone, and everyone was so happy to hear her voice again. Far be it from me to hide something like that from everyone. Social media and cloud based services have a lot backed up though. It would be a shame to miss something that might give someone a bit of comfort.

personally, wiping all devices, but i will have a hard drive with pictures of pets and memories, notes, music, and other stuff for my brother. i know he would appreciate that gift, as hard as it would be for him.
