For anyone curious as to how, GNU `shred` can do that. Something like:
`shred --force --zero /dev/sda`
should wipe the whole drive, overwriting 3 times (the default) with random bits and once with all zeroes.
`shred --force --zero /dev/sda`
should wipe the whole drive, overwriting 3 times (the default) with random bits and once with all zeroes.
This whole destruction thing is very economically and environmentally nonsensical to me.
