I sold my Mac mini last year and I'm scared

What are you going to do with the new Macs (desktops and laptops) that don't have removable drives???

Will you smash them with no regrets, as well...?

I still have them all, and yes, eventually I will do that with no regrets.

I don't get this kind of sentiment.

Like, what are you guys doing on your Macs that warrants this kind of burn-down-the-house-after-moving kind of attitude?

Do you store all your passwords locally as plain text files?

Whatever it is that I'm doing that makes this worth it to me, do you think I'm just going to tell a random stranger on an internet forum?

Do you have any links to someone doing that on an encrypted drive?

Is that even possible? I doubt it, at least right now. I am under no illusions that future technology will fail to render all of our data security attempts worthless. (except for mine)
