FBI offers a bounty to technicians who report incriminating evidence, so yeah, when you take your repair tickes to a large service, you can expect this.
Local services depend on word of mouth so they might be more respectful, but only because they are incentivized to not let rumors of their snooping get out.
Still, surveillance staff routinely pass saucy and gross pics all over their office and we only hope they don’t dump them on the internet like high-school students
This was in Canada, where snooping like this is illegal.
I hope in Canada law enforcement cares more about following the rules than it does in the US.
