Seems to be the new trend, destroy the cell phone.
It’s almost seems like an admission of guilt, in and of itself.
The phone can have a lot of unrelated stuff on it someone who wants to go phishing for stuff, can then browse. I dont blame innocent people for doing it. Of course it may make sense for the regular’person to have a burner nowadays so ifmthey do keep other personal private stuff they have it on something else.
