The Great Zero Challenge Remains Unaccepted

An anonymous reader writes "Not even data recovery companies will accept The Great Zero Challenge and only four months remain! We've all heard how easily data can be recovered from hard drives. We're told to make multiple overwrites with random data, to degauss drives and even physically destroy them just to be extra safe. Let's get the word out. The challenge is almost over! It's put up or shut up time. Can you recover the data?"

By advertisement, one doesn't need the particular /. endorsement, young grasshopper. The audience they are working for has no reason to affiliate w/ or need review of any of peasant ways.

I realize you think you're hot stuff, but in the global sphere of knowledge, if you think /. is a meeting of the greatest minds, well, you keep believing that. I'm sure it'll be good for your treatment.

Deal w/ govt's and you realize they are on a whole different playing field. We're not even invited to watch the game let alone be allowed to know when the games are played.

Ah yes, I'm the idiot because you cannot figure out their business model. My fault. I apologize.

Since you're assuming you exist in all circles regarding data recovery, they must need you're recommendation. Once you get past the fact you're a nobody, you'll understand why these companies have no interest in your petty games.

And to appease your little friend, Yes, I agree, I'm an idiot. Stroke your friend well tonight in thanks.
