Pardon the large font. it is not a troll. it's because of aging and needing to update my glasses and I for one find it a lot easier to read on a 2k res monitor, so I am attempting to be helpful. If I am wrong. let me know. The TLDR somehow someone stole tons of personal a data,emails, and passwords, in one of several particularly violent and deep data theft vioolations. In my case the proverbial nuke started at google, and then the blast radius (other potential systems they can get into) spread from there. When I initially asked I thought that I had to try to recover a few terrible pictures that have a grip of sentimental value i can not replace: for those who don't know how googles thing works you have basically a big box that can hold email (gmail) or or stuff (googledrive) the part I had asked about: is the google drive part specifically google pictures. so TLDR (again) is: as put it to my aunt " .petaQ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ferengi up and broke into my all kinds my personal data: including bank and gmail. (Hilariously enough Steam. The Game hosting platform kind. gave them the redshirt treatment faster than a ferengi caught stealing from a Klingon). So that leads me to requesting kinds sir virtual (holographic remotes)."
so the outline is basically this googledrive(locke/hacked/stolen/heldhostage/and otherwise esonsed like a fereng petaQ with what ever it is google needs in order to believe me (Lord [BLANK] Gillian Densmore) is the dude that is the right and proper owner of [email protected] (the personal data etc atached to it) and were able to attempt to go on to hack into (cringe) what ever other related systems they {grawlix here} wanted to. aka DOCKED/DOXED ----------------------------------------------->pictures:----------------------------->pictures from world con (oof but.) pictures of grandpa and grandma (high sentimental partially me much more so my dad and co) because he is ummm how I put this...in Suto'vo'qor So yes. a earnest ask Gud Fur, danke. Der. Das Problem ist Folgendes: Die Schritte unter der URL zur Selbsthilfe funktionieren nicht. 2FA: Fehlanzeige. OTP: Was ist das? etc etc. the attackers managed to make there 2FA stuff think I am not not a idiot named Gil. They even tried to convince BoFa I don't have an account and it took a scary long amount of time before there security kicked them out. and I had used biometrics. same with amazon and lots more. What's scary. Ok explination and context for what follows time! I love this thing called Steam (hosting platform etc) TLDR: Valve: guys that made hafl-life and a few other things run cloud thing called steam it hosts games. Steam-the games company kind! <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_(service)> Steam didn't even let them get past the password screen, they notified pretty insanely fast and basically locked out the intruders. So um ja Lass uns bei Google einbrechen! Ich bringe die Brechstange, du holst die Tastatur.
