The Arizona auditors have discovered roughly 70g of deleted files that were deleted just before the county turned over the material to the auditors! This is against the law and someone should be going to jail!

Data most definitely CAN be deleted, but doing it digitally is pretty hard. Much easier ways involve sledge hammers, cutting torches, and/or industrial shredders.
They only deleted the directory or the pointer to the files.
The files remain intact unless over-written either intentionally or unintentionally if the hard drive is fairly full.
We know this was intentional but they didn’t know how to scramble the files they wanted gone.
Methinks there are a fair amount of dummies on the democrat side that need to learn to code.
In a just world there would be computer scientists doing forensic examinations on ALL voting machines and paraphernalia across the country.
Yes Al, there are actual govt procedures and protocol for proper file deletion.
I’ve used a few methods myself but I would plead the 5th if called to testify…
Shredding: the process of writing random bytes to a file before deleting it from its directory. But any secure system also creates either backup or archive copies, sometimes unbeknownst to the end user. Even better, they also routinely deliver essential files off site.
The problem we have in this country is summed up by the respect a supposed computer genius who wants to block out the sun and is about to give billions to his dog-faced wife in a divorce.
Our elections are a fucking, unprotected joke.
In addition, we have a pipeline that thankfully biden* still allows to exist that was infected by a Russian? Stuxnet.
We are no longer a serious country.
How soon do we get to start hanging some of those commie bitches??? And I’m not asking for a friend…I fukin’ want to know!
Wonder if Lizzie Cheney has ANY idea about how FUBAR elections are in her good ole USA democracy she is righteous to defend like a junkyard dog?
We’re going to have to do to these people what we did to the Japanese if we expect to survive as a country.
Yawn. Nothing will happen to anyone. Hillary took hammers to SIM cards.
And I say again….YAWN.
Yup!
What BOBH said.
No, something did happen. She lost. To her, that was worse then the chair.
And somebody is going to learn about packets.
“This is against the law and someone should be going to jail!”
It should be a capital offense to be any party to election tampering irrespective of how minor one’s roll. In this particular case it is the establishment screwing the American people and the elitist pieces of shit have circled their wagons and are protecting each other.
Any way to roughly calculate the number of votes this represents? I think we know which way it leans!
3 or 4 holes drilled though the hard drive, hitting the platters, will render data recovery impossible. But a raid array setup
would require all the drives to be damaged to destroy the data. Any system worth its weight would have automatic multiple full backups offsite.
Nick Moseder says this “leak” is highly illegal which could be something that can be used to invalidate it as phony if the source isn’t known to verify it.
Nick also talks about the upcoming break in the use of the building suggesting that it could be used for further interference with the material and data. Are the auditors taking no serious security measures to keep the materials secure (as in having 24 hour armed guards along with a serious number of cameras, both seen and hidden, to keep it under constant surveillance)? If that security isn’t in place it would seem to be something someone wanted done if there actually is any malicious intrusion and destruction and alteration of it.
@Doc. “ How soon do we get to start hanging some of those commie bitches??? “ With our justice system I would say a week from never.
Anyone with even a little computer savvy is able to tell you that simply deleting files isn’t enough. All you’ve done is erase the entries in the look-up tables (the equivalent of ripping out the table of contents of a book, leaving the rest of the pages intact) — the data remains until it is physically overwritten. Which means that it’s more than likely still present on these machines waiting to be recovered.
Wiped? What – like with a cloth?
70 gigs of adjudication ballots.
I’m trying to visualize seventy gigs of ballots. I wouldn’t think one computer ballot weighs very much. How many ballots in one county need to be “adjudicated.” And these are just the ones they wanted to hide from prying eyes.
Looks like a whole lot of Trump votes switched to Biden votes.
Kevin R. — Exactly. That’s a major part of the fraud. From a former trial lawyer’s point of view, I would LOVE to have the fact of the deletion almost more than the actual data. Red meat.
Yes, there are ways of “securely” deleting files (assuming they were not backed up somewhere), but it takes forever as every byte on the drive has to be written and erased something like three times. It is not a matter of moving files to the trash and emptying the trash.
They should go to jail for being stupid. BleachBit anyone? It’s one thing to be evil, but evil AND stupid is a nonstarter.
