hi,
My company gave me a laptop for work and after some time they will give it to another person when I quit the company so I want to make sure I don’t leave any of my data behind so which command should I run to delete my home directory to delete all the data?
is it just
rm -rf /home/myname
Anecdote time:
A company would give people company blackberries, but people would have to add their own personal cell phone plan if they wanted to make and receive phone calls and text messages. But the phone was managed by the company. When a friend had some spicy text messages flagged by HR for review, they rather indignantly said this is my phone! This is my phone plan! They have no right… And our boss very kindly very nicely said, we don’t pay you enough to buy your own phone?
“No, you do not. Next question please”
