I bought a 3d printer off Ebay which got delivered not too long ago, and it came with 2 sd cards - one with a build video and some demo print files, but worryingly another card that has all the previous owner's personal files on there.

Not sure whether to format it, or to contact the seller offering to send the card back (free of charge)... how would you prefer to be approached in a similar situation?

Edit: No gcode files are on the card, just 30gb of pictures, music and videos. Sent the seller a message offering to upload it to cloud or to send the card back

Best security practices are pointless if you disregard them because they're inconvenient and unlikely to be necessary. Most needles I find on the ground are clean too, but I'm not just gonna stick them in me because the odds are in my favor.

Might as well get rid of your internet connection then.

And your shoes while you’re at it. Good luck walking on all those pinecones!
