Seems like that would be illegal and they should be on trial. I wonder if I went into Amazon and started to destroy a PC or two would I be held accountable?
oh wow crazy the capitalists are ghoulish liars who fucking knew
Just behead them all and be done with it, we know they’re guilty.
of course they did, the penalty for getting caught destroying evidence is far, far less than the penalty for the price fixing they’re accused of. the law is designed to incentivize them to do this.
we could make it so that the penalty for destroying evidence in a court case once its been subpoenaed is twice the penalty of the original case, but we don’t. we could make CEOs responsible for the actions of their employees (after all, they’re quick to claim responsibility for the actions of their employees when those actions generate money), but we don’t.
Well they weren’t under investigation at the time, so they didn’t do anything wrong. “Destroying years of evidence” in this case can simply mean cleaning up someone’s email inbox or throwing away some old printouts on someone’s desk.
Stupid clickbait headline.
Hmm. Suppose I commit a crime, and I have video evidence of it. But then it occurs to me that the cops might come looking. So I delete the video. According to you, I didn’t do anything wrong…
Also, you seem to think that inboxes take up a lot of storage. Hmm. Actually, they take up almost no storage. It’s very easy to archive written documents for decades.
