Breaking! Data Files Reportedly Deleted in Arizona Before Providing Machines to Senate Auditors May Have Been Recovered by the Audit Team
GP ^ | May 16, 2021 | Joe Hoft

Posted on 05/16/2021 11:35:36 AM PDT by White Lives Matter

The deleted database files noted by the Arizona Senate in their letter to Maricopa County’s Board of Supervisors may have been recovered by the audit team.

.... Snip....

On Saturday it was reported that there is speculation going around the net (Codemonkey is back) that:

[The image is of all the files that have been UNDELETED. That shows it was recovered by the forensic IT teams. It’s not to show us that they were deleted it is to show that they HAVE IT ALL.]

We shall soon see. If this is true, do you think the individuals in the state and county that are trying to stop this audit know this?

Computer files are usually recoverable if the ‘DELETE FILE’ command is used. They are Physically on the hard drive but Logically not accessible.

Hey, troll-boi, good to hear from you.

All I need to do is look at how nervous the Dems are acting, and where trolls like you swarm the threads.

Well, having had some personal experience in this, if something is deleted and not overwritten, it (or some portion of it) may be recovered.

Think of it this way. Let’s say you had a library card in one of those old Dewey Decimal thingies that told you where a book was in the library. You can pull out the card, and it tells you what area, and where in that area the book may be found.

Works pretty good.

But let’s say someone removes that card.

That book might be essentially “lost”. Unless someone knew some facts about the book, such as the type (fiction, history, etc) and the author’s name, it probably wouldn’t be found.

However, if the book had not been removed, sold, or actually destroyed, and was where it had always been, it could be found by an inventory or a search.

So it is with the database in question. On computer hard drives, there is an “index” that tells the computer where on the hard drive the database actually is...it just points the computer to the file. Many times when a file is “erased” (especially by ignorant people, or people in a hurry) they simply remove the index entry that tells where the file actually is...they don’t actually delete the file.

There is a possibility that the database (book) was never really destroyed, they just removed the index entry on the computer (Dewey Decimal System Card) that told the computer where that database was.

If the area on that hard drive where the database resides had not been overwritten by new data (or maliciously and deliberately overwritten in order to effectively “destroy” it, they did the equivalent of removing the card, not destroying the database (the book)

And knowledgable people know how to find out where that “orphaned” database is by using special software that combs the drive for information and reconstructs the Index (Dewey Decimal Card) that points to it.

There is software out there that recovers deleted erased and damaged files... I’ve used it and it works.

Right. I did database management and understand that — it’s how forensic cops can find “deleted” files.

I’m thinking of a completely separate system where government and organizations send data to places like Iron Mountain Disaster Recovery Data Center to retrieve in emergency situations. I worked for two big tech companies who did that — and a city, too. Is there a chance the data could be hidden in a place like that?

During the post 11/3/2020 counts and certifications he confidently announced that “Bitchain was forever” suggesting that manipulations of vote tally machines would be outed and obvious.

No such luck to date unless that’s Lindell’s basis for proof of fraud.

Sigh.

Heh, sorry, I wouldn’t have given you that explanation if I knew your background...I thought you were a Freeper who uses computers for email and surfing the Internet...and not much more...:)

I have thought about this, and I would not be surprised to hear there IS no DR (Disaster Recovery) for these systems. I would not be surprised to hear that they only had configuration files saved, and if everything was lost in a fire or hack, they would simply wipe them clean, have Dominion reinstall their software, then restore the configurations back to an empty voting system ready to be cleaned up.

For a system that is supposed to be not capable of wide area networking for security reasons (which I don’t believe for a single blessed second) and are not used on a day to day basis as a medical system would be, I fully and absolutely would be unsurprised to hear that there is no DR solution for these systems, and no replication of either software or databases in a remote location.

If anything, they are all on the Dominion Democracy Suite servers waiting for the next election, and if they are deleted and they have to create a fresh database next election...ho hum. No big deal. Might even be designed that way for all I know.

Granted, if one observes the appropriate federal laws, all elections which have federal candidates on them must have all election materials and documents (including databases, ballot images, computer logs, etc.) saved for 22 months, so one would think to avoid being in non-compliance with existing federal law, they would have a DR system that would allow them to do just that in case the building where a county stores its Ballot Machines, Optical batch scanners, and Servers that run the Dominion Democracy Suite software burns to the ground and takes everything with it.

But given that localities, especially crooked leftist ones like the state I live in (where a candidate has an open suit against the state because it routinely deletes the “ballot images” weeks after an election) don’t want to save these things, and there appears to be absolutely no enforcement whatsoever of these federal laws (which OVERRIDE the State laws no matter what they are)

I believe they would plead ignorance or bad fortune, and nothing happens.

This is not the same as a Hospital. I work in healthcare, and they are deadly serious about retention of documents for the specified time frames, check them often, and punish severely for any infractions.

Can be recovered easy, depending how was deleted.

How many servers has this data gone through.

Even a tech expert could only tell you “a lot.” It is all probably on some Chinese and Iranian servers, too as both were evidently involved in the manipulatory effort.

Much more likely, if the fraud is proved and massive and cannot be ignored, there will be a series of arrests for insane charges and a number of accidental deaths and suicides. We have crossed the line and have only some of the show of a Republic now. The collectivists and oligarchs totally control the voting process now and the military officer corps has been thoroughly purged and good men have been replaced by Wokers and the enlisted men are being re-educated and purged down to recruits. My son got out of the army after 13 years when he saw it beginning to happen back in 2018. trump didn’t purge the Obamanites the way Obama purged the patriots and combat experienced guys. Obama following Clinton with Bush as a noneffectual space between has been a disaster for the military. The Supreme Court has been largely neutered and if it shows any Constitutional gumption the nine will get a few new colleagues on an expanded bench.

Time to just tear it down and start over again.

Ah, the lieutenant Qook has spoken. Did someone put up the Qook batsignal?

Btw, are you still waiting for the Mothership to swoop down and lead the military to reinstall Trump? When was that supposed to happen again?

"Trust Sessions!!!"

“The entire DJT Presidency, entire, was to be a 4-year Sting Operation. Everything recorded (NSA has ALL, for last 15-20 years). Now, evidence for Tribunals.

Even POTUS Trump’s “questionable” appointments were to put in place evil so that they’d commit crimes to be caught in the act. Like Pence.”

smh

Breaking? This was part of the original letter, about 20 GP articles ago.

That doesn’t mean they’ve found the main DM file, but clearly they had found the deleted folder with filenames and properties still recoverable, right from the beginning.

LOL! They ARE serious. I worked for a hospital in FL for a few years, and we were always on guard for the pop-in visit of JCAHO. Arrrgh!

It is one of the things that makes me steaming mad about government-if we compromise patient data...ANYTHING, even a number that can’t really be easily traced to an individual patient, we can be hit with hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars of fines.

If the IRS exposes sensitive personal data on millions of Americans, NOBODY is fined or disciplined.

It is a great big shoulder shrug.
