It’s crazy to realize that computers have been commonplace in homes for over forty years now, and many people have been carrying around smartphones since the early 2000s. While we let this information sink in, let’s also add that the fact that people use these tech devices doesn’t necessarily mean that they know what they’re doing and how to care for their devices.
Tech support workers say that a surprising majority of users tend to neglect or end up ruining their devices for the most apparent and often hilarious reasons. Truth be told, we are guilty of some of these mistakes ourselves until we saw how wrong things can go if we’re not careful. These 15 tech fails are equally hilarious and eye-opening!
