What do you think disposing off your surplus old computers, monitors, hard drives, and medical equipments in open lands or pitfalls would help you get rid of them?
No! You should be careful while taking such action to avoid legal repercussions which could be invited by irresponsible disposing off or by the asset recovery ventures. Your surplus old computers, monitors or even IT scrap could be major source for water contamination, health hazards, and pollution that are restricted by law! A worst scenario could be comprehended by a moving true story: A philanthropist organization gave away their surplus IT stuff to a charity for a good cause-- indeed. Unfortunately the charity irresponsibly disposed off the same IT stuff in a nearby pitfall/open land. Soon the event somehow brought to the notice of a watchdog agency. The investigators hinted by the e-waste tags and serial numbers got hold of the original owner who was then held responsible for the IT stuff disposing off. The good cause literally cost the organization a dearly amount in fine on just over sighting CSR (corporate social responsibility). This event could be avoided if HIPAA and Green guidelines were observed in letter and spirit!
