Best is a hot air desoldering tool with a square nozzle to heat the leads
and board right next to leads. These tools are amazing.
 
If not, you can use an X-acto knife to score the pins right at the body
until they break. If careful, it does not damage the board. Cut the
leads on 3 sides completely, then score the leads on the 4th side part-
way and bend the IC a few times and they break off. Then, sweep the
leads off the pads with a soldering iron. Clean up remaining solder with
braid, and replace chip.
 
But, the hot air tool is 100X better!

Some chips can be read out, some are protected and you CAN'T read the
contents.

I suppose it wouldn't if you have zero comprehension.
