The so-called fact checkers are probably using a technicality to skirt the truth.
When you "delete" a file on your computer, you're not actually deleting the file itself, you're deleting the pointer to the file. (Think of a pointer as a library card that tells you where in the library to find the book that you want.) The pointer, like the library card, is what allows you to find and retrieve the file. If you delete the pointer, there is no way to immediately find the file and bring it up on the user's screen. The file is effectively "deleted," but it's not physically deleted. The file is still out there, it's just inaccessible, just as the library book is still out there, but you don't know what shelf it is on.
The only way this file is truly deleted, is if something else comes along and writes overtop of the file, thus "erasing" it.
That being said, so long as nothing overwrites the files, the files still exist. What the cyber people were able to do with their toolbox of tricks was to find and access these files that were missing their pointers.
So, when the fact checkers say that the database had not been deleted, they're technically correct -- only the pointers were deleted, the files were intact.
Unfortunately, the average person is not going to be aware of these subtle nuances.
I disagree.
Mr. Ben Cotton testified to the Senate on Tuesday that the database had been deleted.
He explained about the MFT and what he saw in his testimony to the Senate President and Senator Warren (if I recall correctly).
He did not say that the pointer had been corrupted. He said the database directory had been deleted.
He then described that it was a moot point, because through forensic methods he was able to recover the data he needed to complete the audit.
You should go back and watch his testimony.
Everyone should.
We should clarify what Delete means.
The act of deleting by an individual is different from the act of the software and hardware behavior when a person deleted something.
Hardware and software pointers don't delete themselves typically.
The Maricopa County Database (or pointer to it) did not delete itself.
This spoliation is still in question.
Bottom line is "spoliation of evidence"
They want to fact check the nuances of the usage of the word "deleted". The real issue is their attempt to delete evidence, not whether they were successful.
Yes.
