The ******* grabbed it out of my hand and started to write down my number. I immediately called the police, and got back my credit card and license, plus I insisted he give my the piece of paper he wrote my number on. I then called Amex and told them what happened. I know that Amex stopped doing business with him. The store was out of business within a few months. Yes, I will stand up for my rights. Asking for identification is not unreasonable, but writing down information from it, is not something a merchant should do. -- PeterN |

That is conjecture on our part. Regardless the evidence captured in that photograph is for now unavailable. To my suspicious mind there is more to this story than the OP is telling us, and I have a feeling he arrived at the Referee Smog Station with a problem vehicle and an attitude. My guess too: attitude. One of those incidents escalated by attitude. What he can't do is confiscate the photographer's property, such as have him delete the image files. correct. Nothing was confiscated. Confiscation requires the seizing of property and retaining it. Well, he was deprived of use of his property, the image file. Technically not confiscation, but forced destruction. A wrong for which there is no practical remedy. -- PeterN |

I find it fascinating that this has (already) led to a thread of 75+ posts, most of which have nothing to do with the question being asked and everything to do with the reason that the OP asked it. Had the OP simply asked: "I have taken a photograph on my phone and have unfortunately deleted it. Is there any way that I can get it back. The phone is a Galaxy S3 running Android 4.3 and the picture was saved on the SD card. I use Ubuntu Linux." he would have had a handful or relevant replies and that would have been that. Because he went into all the irrelevant stuff about a "smog station" and "inappropriate action" this has become a much larger thread and all sorts of issues have been discussed. I love that about usenet -- but it does show that you have to be careful to ask the question you mean to ask if you hope to get a simple answer (mine would be: "testdisk"). I'm British, and the phrase "bar referee smog station" meant absolutely nothing to me ... I gather now that it's somewhere one has to take a vehicle to have the engine emissions checked, but my first thought was that the OP was talking about some sort of shelter outside a bar where smokers could go to indulge their addiction. Two nations divided by a common language, eh? -- Cheers, Daniel. |

Like you, I was interested to hear of potential solutions to recovering a deleted photo, but I had to delete the vast majority of the off-topic replies which continue to ruin rec.photo.digital for me, and appear to have driven away many of the previous regular posters. -- Cheers, David Web: http://www.satsignal.eu |

As it happens, I do know what MoT means and there are similar abbreviations in the US; I have seen USDOT and VDOT on trucks in the US but, except in this case, I would feel it necessary to explain them to an international audience. -- Jim Silverton (Potomac, MD) Extraneous "not." in Reply To. |

Two nations divided by a common language, eh? In this case one nation. I live in the US and had no idea what a "BAR referee smog station" was--I envisioned an establishment for smoking lawyers initially. Most places in the US just call it an "emissions test station" and don't have special ones for "referees". This seems to be something uniquely Californican. Let's just call it a top heavy California bureaucracy. A commercial automobile repair facility in this state ends up haveing to deal with multiple agencies such as, the Bureau of Automotive Repair (BAR), the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV), the California Occupational Safety & Health Administration (CalOSHA) for starters. I have no doubt there are others. -- Regards, Savageduck |
