In theory reset is suppose to clear info, but I guess someone who would buy the used Ipod Touch wouldn't be a hacker, or computer wiz that could retrieve deleted info.
There is alot about computer/electronic gadgets that hackers know how they retrieve info. But they aren't going to tell us how they do it; so we don't know how to better protect ourselves. |
Yes I had my WiFi info on my Kindle Touch, but feel okay about the reset wiping it. I don't know enough about Android and iOS to know whether to trust a reset with them. Probably not much other than a reset can be done on iOS, not sure about Android. With computers I've either removed the hard drives and replaced them with new ones or I've completely wiped them and reinstalled the OS.
