Evolution of the trash icon over the years

(just slightly modified from @catsalad 's infosec.exchange/@catsalad/115…)

#Copilot #genAI

Screenshot of an image entitled "The evolution of the trash icon" showing a list of the different trash icons that existed under Windows (I think) from years 1995 - 2015. The last icon (2025) has been replaced (oops) by a Copilot Icon

Trash icon over the years
The evolution of the trash icon. Windows Trash folder icon for 1995, 1998, 2000, 2001, 2006, 2015, and finally 2025 (but the icon is now just the Microsoft Teams icon)

technically it’s a recycle bin. Apple sued them over the “trash can” thing and they won the case because of that technicality. But it’s all garbage now, point taken
