You can test this yourself to prove that quite a lot of data really is recoverable:

# create filesystem and populate it with example files
fallocate -l 10G testfs
mke2fs -t ext4 -d /usr/share testfs

# damage filesystem in the manner of the "ransomware" script
dd if=/dev/urandom of=testfs bs=1M count=512 conv=notrunc
dd if=/dev/urandom of=testfs bs=1M count=512 conv=notrunc oseek=9728

# attempt to recover data
photorec testfs

Did you recover your data successfully?

No... but fortunately I have daily backups. But it took me some time to rebuild my four VMs.
