I am a menace around unlocked computers. Was at a job and found a colleague who left his computer unlocked and had customer information open in a co working space on his screen. Set his computer language to hebrew before locking it.
Another time in college I found an unlocked computer in a library. Set their profile picture to Chris Chan with an overlay image saying “#ThisIsMyAuthenticSelf #Unafraid”. On this system, the user was not likely to see their own picture, but other people they contact will.
Couple of jobs back, the custom was to either set the background image to something disgusting and borderline NSFW, or go on the equivalent of Slack that we used and announce “I’m getting everyone pizza tomorrow” for them. The latter was considered just punishment for a security violation.

You used to be able to set a web site as a background on windows XP.
I used that to terrible effect
I used to set default webpages on display models in stores to direct competitors sites.
