Yup, when I was working desktop support a few years ago my manager told me to just format the drive and send it back to dell at the end of the lease, they’d secure erase it anyway and the data was safe, I never trusted that and used dd to overwrite every bit of the ssd twice with junk data, I’m sure it decreased the longevity of the drive but wasn’t my problem and it felt cool to be the only desktop support guy who knew any Linux.
SSD wear leveling mechanism would create new writes into different physical sectors so it was highly probable you were not in fct overwriting at least a proportion of the data
