    Hey Fapstronauts,I have a question regarding my accountability partner's external hard drives which he has. They contain many gigabytes of porn, and he doesn't know what to do with them. My reply was to get them cleaned, but he's too embarrassed to take to a friend or a computer store to get them cleaned. My final option was to literally trash them and send them to the garbage pit. Yet he sees that as a waste of money, which is understandable since he didn't get them for free. What do you guys think he should do? I still hold on to my last option, since it's no good doing the Challenge with traps lying around. I hope to receive a number of replies soon. Thanks guys.

  2. Um, can they be deleted? Am I missing something?

    Delete and (re)format them, should be fine to have the stuff deleted quite thoroughly

    Unless he is worried about a forensic team finding traces of the shit (which I understand depending on how far down the rabbit hole porn led him) then deleting and or formatting the drives is good enough and he can keep them. If on the other hand the drives are tainted with illegal porn than you are right. He should format them and then burn them. Decent enough people who are led astray by PMO sometimes end up on sex offender registries if they go to the wrong computer store.
     
  5. Totally missed that, good point. He could have downloaded something illegal thinking it was not.
