Cloud servers

Many of us wonder where everything that we delete goes and if it is actually still accessible by other people such as the government and many other tech companies that run cloud servers. We all delete files on our computers and mobile devices every day, but where do those deleted files actually go? Are they still there in some form? Can they actually be recovered? Is the recovery process difficult? It’s evident that the process to recover deleted files such as pictures is not that difficult because on phones such as the iphone, it is easy to recover pictures because it provides a folder where recently deleted pictures go that can be turned on or off depending on your choice. Pictures that you have deleted, and once you recover them they only appear on ones camera roll and not in the photo stream. When you delete a file on a Windows computer, it is moved to the computer's Recycle Bin. However, what happens to the deleted files? Where do they go? When a file the file header is removed so that the computer can no longer see the file and makes it as though it is gone, The file is no longer readable by the computer. However, the file is still on the hard drive. It is still possible to recover deleting things with software. So for those of you that are worried about where your deleted files and pictures go you don’t have to worry about it because you technically still have it but in your hard drive. When you delete a picture on your iphone and you recover it you will see what I am talking about and it will no longer appear in your photo stream. There are applications where you can clean cache files on iphones for more memory and what you clean out in cache files are mainly your pictures. I don’t think that the government has anything to do with cloud servers and if they did they probably just monitor for illegal stuff that shouldn’t be on people’s phones in the first place. Now you know what happens to deleted pictures.
