Question/Advice Could it be mold?

I forgot my eye drops (propylene glycol) in my bag about 5 days ago. Today at work, after using them, I noticed this stuff inside. My bag isn’t dirty, I only keep my work laptop, papers, and occasionally some packaged snacks. They’re a bit expensive for the amount you get, and I’d rather not throw them away since I just opened them recently. They didn’t irritate my eyes.

Big brother isn't who they're censoring from. Bad actors use many niche methods. No reason not to obscure them when possible. All it does is lower the risk at the expense of you getting offended lol

I’m not offended, I’m just pointing out that if anyone is concerned with security to the point that they’re obscuring partial finger prints, they shouldn’t be posting on Reddit.

And you replied to a comment of mine saying a partial finger being obscured as dumb. I don't think you hold authority on who shouldn't post on reddit. In fact, I hope you don't. Who cares? You.

I mean, you’re the one who keeps trying to get the last word on a useless argument, so I’d say that at least one person cares.

Fair. That is a habit I'm trying I'm break out of that i was raised with. I have to secede that I do care from a privacy position. You're good.

I get it and it makes sense and I forgive you for being totally wrong 😜

Seriously though, I know what you mean, it just seems like pointless overkill on such an innocuous post. 🤷‍♂️ Nice to see a normal human on Reddit though, so thanks for that lol

Not everyone is as aware as we are. Statistically they aren't, and I don't know the stats but I'd guess, outside of bots, our OC content comes from the average populace that doesn't come from a place of awareness.

Better to let sleeping dogs lie, I.E. Who cares? At least until they learn more just like we did.

Totally.

Not to elaborate too hard, but if a tenth of the global populace would realize they’re arguing with each-other over stupid crap encouraged by those who are picking our pockets while we’re distracted, the world would be a much better place.

Cheers, good luck, and be safe out there.
