Or indeed something that is really possible with anything. If it's blurry it's broken. Learn your camera settings and take another.

There's some surprisingly sci-fi stuff that's possible with image deconvolution. Not exactly practical, but it is possible to recover some information from a blurry photo.

Yeah, I'll wager computer generated blur is easier to undo than real physics generated blur.

There was that Canadian a few years ago who used a swirly blur on a picture of him raping kids, and the German police reversed it and had him locked up.

I mean, you're not wrong - but it's a technique used every day for super-resolution microscopy.
