I still have email backups from 2010, from two employers ago. My email storage space was 2 GB back then, and I was in a fairly small company using low-cost Zimbra, not a bigwig for the IRS, which should have a couple huge server farms.
Considering that tens of millions of people have e-filed taxes for many years, one would think that the IRS has these electronic records saved on servers somewhere. Email storage should not be a problem for the most anally retentive of government entities. This is absolute Bravo Sierra.
In a legit world, we’d be seeing video footage of agents swooping in on that building and snatching evidence.
Maybe we can just use stock footage of the Gibson Guitar raid and photoshop computers into the hands of agents.
