Straight from late night TV commercials — (Board of) Directors Gone Wild!
From the NYT …
A secret investigation of news leaks at Hewlett-Packard was more elaborate than previously reported, and almost from the start involved the illicit gathering of private phone records and direct surveillance of board members and journalists, according to people briefed on the companyâs review of the operation.
…
Those briefed on the companyâs review of the operation say detectives tried to plant software on at least one journalistâs computer that would enable messages to be traced, and also followed directors and possibly a journalist in an attempt to identify a leaker on the board.
Planting snooping software on journalists’ computers. Lovely.
Who wants to bet someone does time?
