Consumers will just keep going. But businesses that actually care about security? Yeah it might be a lot. I wonder if they will just toss them or if they'll actually donate them.
Many companies I work with either sell their old workstations for pittance to their employees after we have nuked the drives or donate them to projects that provide laptops to students or refugees who can't afford them.
But many companies lease their hardware nowadays, so those end up to landfill or to companies that refurb them and sell them for profit.
