Just want to add one more thing:

Mark still has hope that he can get his information back. The San Francisco police have the contents of his Google account preserved on a thumb drive. Mark is now trying to get a copy. A police spokesman said the department is eager to help him.

You know you fucked up when the police are the good guys in the story.

If they’re so eager why didn’t they just get it done right away?

I assume it'd because it's someone's incredibly private information, and they want to make sure they don't give it to some random Joe. I know if the police had naked pictures of my kid, I'd be happy if the process of getting copies took more than just showing my ID and getting a thumb drive
