    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.

        No you didn’t do anything wrong by deleting the video.

        The size of an inbox on the server is irrelevant. Some people like to delete stuff when they don’t need it anymore.
