From what I can tell, if they've targeted you, they're going to take your stuff. Doesn't matter if the drives look like noise or are nothing but zeros. The point is primarily to be a thorn in your side and to drain you of money. Any intel gleaned is just icing on the cake.

On the other side I just download the TC volume, download my app[1] onto my phone, and re-sync my data.
