Can You Spot Your Old PC at One of the World’s Largest Electronic Dumps?

http://www.slate.com/articles/technology/technology/2015/09/a_photo_gallery_of_an_electronic_wasteland_guiyu_china.html

What happens when you throw away an old MacBook or phone? Most likely, it will travel to Guiyu, a town in the Guangdong province in southeast China. The town has a population of 150,000 and harbors millions of pounds of discarded e-waste like computers, cellphones, and hard drives.
