Tech firm brags about blocking FBI from recovering Clinton emails
The Washington Examiner ^ | August 26th, 2016 | By Sarah Westwood

Posted on 08/26/2016 3:17:31 PM PDT by Mariner

A technology company that provided the program Hillary Clinton's team used to scrub her private server of emails bragged on its website Thursday that it had prevented the FBI from accessing deleted records.

BleachBit, the publicly-available application that was used to deleted some of Clinton's emails ahead of an FBI investigation, said it had not yet been served a subpoena over its involvement in the destruction of potentially classified records.

A headline on the company's website read: "BleachBit stifles investigation of Hillary Clinton."

Rep. Trey Gowdy brought the involvement of the program to light Thursday when he told Fox News that Clinton's emails were so fully deleted that "even God can't read them."

I think this pretty much makes Comey the fool over that “intent” statement.

Unfortunately for Hildadevil, her emails came from and went to other servers and computers to populate those hard drives. I’m sure they were all hacked constantly. There are more copies of her emails walking around the globe than Bill’s genetic contributions to the ladies.

I am glad they boast about their participation.
However, it was "common knowledge", and in press reports that this data had been subpoenaed and they should be legally charged with 'aiding and abetting criminal action', and 'facilitating criminal conduct'.
Due to "common knowledge" of the subpoena existance, they are accountable for their actions; the fact that a subpoena wasn't issued directly to them is 'moot'.
Then they boasted about their participation in a criminal enterprise , and should be punished for it

Headline is misleading.

Who’s boasting about whose participation in what?

I don’t think it matters if she used Bleachbit or not, the NSA has all her emails, interview here

http://www.breitbart.com/jerusalem/2016/07/31/exclusive-nsa-architect-agency-clintons-deleted-emails/

When Trump wins he needs to call for an investigation into what was going on with her emails. Now if someone has erased all those emails at the NSA, that is another story.

I think they are crowing about how good it purportedly worked on Hillary’s wiped server — unfortunately, all copies of the information weren’t wiped from everywhere.

This is unseemly conduct, but most assuredly not illegal, of them. It would be like a baseball bat manufacturer crowing their bats are so good that thugs using them have killed 9 out of 10 victims, or something of the sort. Disgusting, but the law cannot touch them for that.

According to one poster here this is the third/fourth time Comey has gotten the Clintons off for something, but the first since being appointed head of FBI. He’s the Clinton get-out-of-jail-free card.

Oh bull shit. It’s a comercial program that anyone can purchase and use. The company sold software, they didn’t do the deleting. That’s like suing a gun manufacturer because some dealer sold someone a gun used in a crime.

Bleach-bit software downloads have hit record numbers inside the IP addresses around the DC Metro areas.

No intent however to destroy public records......nah. None at all.

Not necessarily a good example. That has/will happen.

The NSA knows every filthy corrupt little quip that’s been worked by the Clintons for decades, yet have done zilch about it. Good way to get more funding for more data harvest sites.

No it hasn’t and there is legislation preventing it.
