Like I said yesterday, in 11 years of IT work we always instruct the clients to destroy hard drives/storage when they are being decommissioned. We have an In-Shop guy who every day spends a half hour drilling holes in old hard drives. It's standard procedure.
Also, I ALWAYS inform my employees of the risks of using your company phone as your only one, ie, the company has access to your history/texts, etc. This is why almost the entire company carries 2 phones. Everyone that works in a corporate world that is issued a company phone knows this, so it's absurd that people are latching onto it except for the fact that the public wants Brady to be guilty. Not to mention the fact that Goodell is using this to definitively show Brady's guilt when he himself wouldn't give his personal device to Mueller.
