Ethics

When I have worked on others' boxes I have never made any effort to search the drives. Doing that always struck me as seriously unethical. Plus even if I ever were to search I have no idea what is pornographic or what is a suspicious file as I do not have the hashes available. This raises the question of how did the techs know the image was pornographic without someone telling them what to look for.
