Samsung will hide your personal data during phone repair

Samsung is implementing a new feature into their phones that will be able to hide your data during repair.
So the thing is, if your device breaks & you have to take it in for repair, you kinda just have to format your device if you want your personal data to stay hidden.
There’s been plenty of stories over the years of various technicians including even Apple’s Genius bar people looking at your data while your device is in for repair.
And I actually also worked as a repair technician for a bit & I can tell you firsthand that there definitely are bad apples that look at your private files.
Not to mention that sometimes you also just randomly see them when you’re repairing a device, because that’s just how it is.
So Samsung’s new feature would basically make it so that technicians can still do their job & the owner would still have their private data protected which I think is awesome.
