no problem. The command "dd if=/dev/vda bs=1M | strings -n 100 > out.txt" in find.sh, which is the same as the one first mentioned today morning https://github.com/fog/fog/issues/2525. $20/month droplet
Thanks! I wonder how long it would take for someone to scrub their VM manually using dd before terminating it? Maybe the same length of time? 12 minutes seems a pretty reasonable amount of time, but since it's an SSD the writes could take >3x longer than the reads.
That's true, but if you've already rm'd a bunch of sensitive files, their data unfortunately can't be shredded. So you'll have to make sure you've always used shred for everything since the beginning, which is good practice but probably rare.
