Before checking in with subsim for the first time in 2008 (hapy new year everyone
) I was reading about this story elsewhere.
Here's what the first speaker had to say:
Quote:
Putting SMUT on returned digital media devices = good idea
I read today how a child's new MP3 player came loaded with smut.
After giggling a bit at the thought of this and also being reminded of the cinema scene in Fight Club I remembered when I returned a DSLR camera which had a hot pixel on the sensor.
"Within 10 minutes, my daughter was crying,"
I got an email some weeks later from a lady who had bought a camera for her husband and wondered why all the photos they shot were being copyrighted to me - I explained the item had been returned as faulty and the franchise camera shop had resold it as a brand new product instead of marking it as either refurbished or returned.
"I wish I could take the thoughts and images out of her head."
I think what this guy did was more than likely an oversight but perhaps he had experienced a similar incident when buying a product in the past and wanted to make sure he got his own back on the store by returning the item with "some materials" loaded onto it ? I know this kind of action is morally wrong but it would teach these shops to stop be stingy and not resell the item as a new product...
