If I want to keep my job or stay out of jail, yes. You think it is ok to destroy evidence?
So, if your company put lies in the company newsletter about you, used erroneous and flawed data to back those slanderous allegations up, then showed up at your door one day, and said: “Give us your personal computer. Right now, no questions asked, because we think you are doing something wrong and we want to do a complete forensic analysis before we determine if we will fire you or not...” you would simply unplug it from the wall and give it to them?
Would you do that? Like a lot of people who seem to side with you, I suspect your answer would be “Of course. I didn’t do anything wrong, so I have nothing to fear.”
Right? You would just hand over your PERSONAL PC?
