Hello, I would like to permanently remove all data from my iPhone 5s that I dropped in the toilet. However I can't erase the factory settings as it won't turn on. What can I do?

Take it to Apple to have it recycled.

Did you have a passcode set on the phone? If so, don't stress over it. The data was encrypted and can't be read.

Just to confirm, I tried to turn the iphone several times after it was wet (which probably damaged it). It even got hot for a while. I just wanna make sure that all the data is gone from the phone.
