Yeah, nothing important. Just your banking apps, personal documents, photos, government apps, emails, all the services linked to your phone via mobile number, personal chats, work chats, 2fa codes, some other not important stuff. But at least it doesn’t have your games. Unless you play games on your phone, then you are fucked.
You’re assuming they actually understand proper data protection procedures. You have a very misplaced amount of faith in the knowledge of the average person. Plenty of people just expect stuff to work and are horrified when they realize they’re not.
I saw that all the time when I worked in mobile phone sales/support.
Most people don’t have anything of importance on their phones. And the tuning options are almost absent on phones, so it is less problematic bug-wise.

For many, a mobile device is their sole computer, and things of importance to them are stored on it.
Le banking app.
But THAT is recoverable EASILY, not like lost forever if you dont recover data from that phones storage.
Something like OTP are rather more important.
Well, I wasn’t talking about recovery, but need for encryption.
No you’re right, nobody has precious photos or videos on their phone 🙄
If they don’t save those photos somewhere else from time to time, it means those photos aren’t that important.
I backup my precious dick pics at several offsite locations by sending them to as many people as possible as often as possible.
