Memory card theft

If a thief removes my memory card without dismounting will it be ok or will it be corrupted?

It would be fine. In 10+ years since USB keys and memory cards were standard, I've never unmounted one once.

Generally ok but surely if a thief took it then you don't have it anymore and it doesn't matter about corruption?

darth pravus :

maybe they are frantically hoping its corrupted so the thief cant see whats on it

If it was writting when it was removed then that file will be corrupt otherwise they will all be there fine. Unmounting a drive is crucial to mechanical drives (so the heads can park) not really to flash media.
