As a side note, I am imagining a distant past where some people were angry at others for letting the shards of their broken pottery just laying on the ground instead of reusing them or getting rid of them properly, and archeologists now being over the moon to find those shards of pottery... But then again, it's difficult to imagine the kind of societal upheaval it would take for archeologists and historians of the future to have any trouble finding out how we live anno 2020, given the mass of data on all sorts of storage media we are producing every single day...
