- freitzkriesler2 2y agoI mean doesn't the file system simply mark a sector as "writeable" until something gets marked on it? I'm more impressed that these areas of flash didn't get copied over with other data.
- kube-system 2y agoIt happens all of the time, which is how data recovery tools work on 'deleted' data. But I doubt this particular instance was a file system bug. Probably a bug in the 30-day delete scheduling that happens by default in the Recently Deleted album in Photos.
