Against which regular user database?

I specifically opened a few apps to break up any large blocks of one color.
Voice acting has been good enough in the past few decades that it's usually usable without re-recording. Maybe remastering at most.
There's also plenty of tooling to upscale textures too, even without AI. The biggest hurdle (for assets, at least) is 3D models. You can slap a subdivision modifier on them to make them higher-poly, but you'd still have to make sure the UVs didn't get messed up (or whatever it is that they're using these days). And also verify that nothing weird happened like new geometry hiding or showing something in-game. (Collision probably doesn't need to change if you're just increasing polycount.)
That sounds like a you problem, because a PNG screenshot of my full 5120x1440 desktop is about 850 kB.
I'd like to see that data. I'd be surprised if it exists, companies rarely release that level of detail on their finances.
And "evil" is a very strong word. We're talking about video games, a luxury recreational product.
Project Arroyo seems dead, though, so no Fallout that I know of.
But why no official ones? They don't think it would be profitable. Microsoft and Bethesda are businesses first.
Well the name checks out, at least. You're ascribing far too much capability to spammers. And that Twitter thing was an obvious fake.
Good thing nobody is poor!
The alternative method would be to use professional equipment or send it to a data recovery specialist.
Did my suggestion to use photorec in your last post not work? How do you even know that the runs of zeroes are where the files you're looking for are? Encrypted data and uninitialized space look like random data, so any runs of zeroes are either valid data or something explicitly zeroed.
I would certainly try.
Then you were the exception.
Probably the guy trying to arrest his political opponents just for existing. I don't know enough details about the election to say anything about that, but arresting political candidates for political reasons makes you a bad guy.
