I never said or even implied all. Are there "crooks" working for Geek Squad? Yes. Are there "crooks" working in the military, government, restaurant arena, retail sector, banking, etc...... Yes of course there are. Trying to show you that your trust in so called professionals is as risky as unquestioningly trusting anyone on the internet to help you with your computer problems.Again, you're making an all or nothing claim and projecting it on what I posted. Wow, just wow.........So, if they plug a thumb drive into your computer, saying it has a diagnostic program on it, you trust them implicitly..........And if anything goes wrong, they are responsible. Besides, when they come out to your home, you are right there with them, watching everything they do.
Yes, I certainly trust an established business over some stranger on the internet.
I do trust them. Besides, you take this risk all the time since professional hackers can hack into your computer pretty easily.
So basically, are you saying all computer programmers and people who would fix your computer (legitimate businesses) are not trustworthy, but strangers on the internet are? Good grief. Just cut the crap now, K?
I think that's what you were doing. Lol. Making up an argument that people who work for Geek Squad or other computer services are criminals who are going to hack into your computer.
I already explained that. The businesses have a vested interest in their employees, that they have some credentials and they are also responsible for wrongdoing. Anonymous people on the internet are not held to the same standards.
Now, again, sorry if you took my comments personally (which you obviously have). That was not the intent. I'm just giving my advice from my own standpoint and experience.
