My friend bought an old broken Dell Notebook from some guy on craigslist who had bought the broken laptop from someone else on craigslist (owner -> guy -> friend). I used its hard drive to get my old laptop working again. It turns out the hard drive belonged to a girl who graduated from my high school 3 years ago. I also found out that my prom date's older sister knows the previous owner of this hard drive, all after looking through her Facebook using the saved passwords in her Firefox. I also found her Paypal password, but I didn't do anything. I was just curious about whose hard drive this was.
Anyways, I realized I could use this laptop to get past the torrent ban at my school by leaving it at home, torrenting there, then transferring the files directly to my rig at school all using remote desktop. Sure, it'd be slow, but it'd still work.
