I don’t get why you’re being downvoted. So far this has been a few posts on social media. I’m skeptical mostly since devices are supposedly encrypted and factory resetting flushes the key. How on earth decrypted files could turn up in photos after their encryption key is destroyed is baffling.

I’m not saying it’s not happening, just it seems so outlandish, I’d be less surprised if it was just people forgetting they’d taken the photos and some cached backup is restoring them somehow.

Looking forward to more concrete information being available about the situation.
