In 17ios try to copy subject in a NSFW image in Photos (tap & hold process to copy person without background).

Then crop photo to just person’s face and then try.

It knows…

I had an iPad that I was using as a monitor in a tractor so I deleted everything on it before letting the driver use it. It asked me if I was sure I wanted all photos deleted because they could not be retrieved. I said yes because I thought it was just deleting them from that IPad. It deleted my entire ICloud account on all devices. Called apple support and they said the pictures were gone forever. Asked to speak to a supervisor and explained what had happened and he said he could retrieve the files. He restored every picture to my other devices in about 1 hour.

For sure…never have but one (recent) iPhone or IPad backup.

Just ask Hunter Biden. Most of his “laptop” stuff was actually old iCloud backups.

I never was convinced any photos you deleted from your phone or computer went into a fire and cremated. They have servers collecting them. So does Google/Android.

Well there one upside to all this. Whe. I went to my cloud, I couldn’t believe the number of gifs and memes I had from 2016-2020.

I now have plenty of storage

I have zero expectation of privacy regarding my phone or any other “smart” device.

I just assume it’s recoding everything and deletes nothing.

I was shocked at how many pictures apple saves in messenger that are not attached to a message any longer.


Settings - General - Iphone Storage - Messages - Photos.
