This happened to me in a sense. I backed up a users desktop box "data"
which included various NSFW items to the server while doing a Windows
upgrade. The only way I had to do this was as to make a directory in my
home directory because I was not an admin on the server and I didn't have
that users login info. Its not that the user wouldn't have given me their
password, but I always felt safer by just not knowing. So who gets in
trouble for putting porn on the server? The wanker user? No. Me.
Corporate America really irks me sometimes.
