I worked for sprint in a retail store for 3 years, and the number of people that handed me their phones with their own nudes as the backgrounds was shocking.

That's suspicious.
I have a theory...
Are you sure they weren't hitting on you, placing nudes on the background and handing you their phone so they knew you had access to their phone number (during the transfer) so they were willing to pay the price of switching phone to get a callback?

I seriously can't think of another reason than that to put nudes as a freaking background...

They could just be an exhibitionist. Self absorbed is also a possibility. Or both!

I was pretty oblivious at the time so it’s possible. But I don’t think so.

I've seen it as a bdsm humiliation task a few times? Usually temporary though.

One of our customers sent their server back to us for repair, and we were greeted with a desktop background of the grottiest fanny any of us have ever seen.
