I think we all know it can be done. Governments do it all the time. |
| 14 |
Data recevery people do it too. Years ago I worked at a computer place |
| 15 |
and the hard drive crashed. The heads physically pulled up the magnetic |
| 16 |
media in a couple places. They still got almost 80% of the data back. |
| 17 |
Funny thing was, they repaired the heads that did all the scratching and |
| 18 |
got the data with them, so they said anyway. |

I'm sure the NSA, CIA and a few others can get data back off just about |
| 21 |
anything. It's just a matter of how much money you want to spend and |
| 22 |
how much time you want to put into it. |

| 25 |
