Leaked contract reveals Samsung's demands for user data from repair shops


Shops are required to leave your phone in pieces if you've used a third-party part.

The leak also shows that shops working with Samsung are required to "immediately disassemble" devices that may have been fixed previously with aftermarket parts. A portion of the agreement states that after disassembling, repair shops are to inform Samsung of the "details and circumstances" of the parts they've discovered.
