@clmerle@mstdn.social Copper is easy to sell but how would thieves go on to sell expensive equipment or parts (RAM, flash drives), all having trackable serial numbers? Is there a data center black market where potential buyers don't care about having a warranty and service?
Well, OTOH there are a lot of gamers starved for some of these parts...

@mschomm@bonn.social @clmerle@mstdn.social if you could steal it by the container load, I'm sure CPT Shanghai would be appreciated.

@mschomm@bonn.social In places like China and Russia they probably don't verify serial numbers. @clmerle@mstdn.social

@mschomm@bonn.social @clmerle@mstdn.social no one on ebay is going to give a shit about a serial number
