That sheer amount shows it's 100% bullshit.

For anyone not too familiar with data sizes, 1024KB is 1MB. 1024MB is 1GB. 1024GB is 1TB. So he is claiming to have 39,000,000MB roughly.

To put that into perspective, here is the average size of different file types.

Images
PNG ~ 2 – 4 kB
GIF ~ 6 – 8 kB
JPG ~ 9 – 12 kB
TIFF ~ 900 – 1.000 kB
BMP ~ 900 – 1.000 kB

Documents
DOCX ~4 – 8 kB
PDF ~ 18 – 20 kB
ODT ~ 80 – 90 kB

Media Files
eBook ~ 1 – 5 MB
MP3 song ~ 3 – 4 MB
DVD Movie ~ 4 GB
HD Movie ~ 5 – 8 GB
Blu-Ray Movie ~ 20 – 25 GB

Complete bullshit. They'd need literal weeks worth of 4k video and thousands of other files.

What the fuck are you talking about.

PDF files are almost ALWAYS over 100 kb in size, if not several megabytes.

A modern phone takes jpeg images that are roughly 5Mb in size.

TIFF files from say, a consumer level scanner can be 500 MB in size.

Pretty much everything you posted with the exception of movie related file sizes is utter bullshit.

It wouldn’t matter if his figures are off because they’re relative ….explain how 37 terabytes of text data would be possible?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 72662529


These are pcap files. Its a capture of real tiem streaming data.

Imagine you're watching TV and the data is streaming and captured, That's 2G per hr being captured as raw packets with packet overhead.

Now imagine that happens in 4000 counties over 3 days.

37 tera bytes is not a lot
