I'm discouraged that much e-discovery "education" elevates counter-discovery topics (e.g., privacy) and feature how and why NOT to do e-discovery. Does anyone instruct attendees how to save, get and deploy electronic evidence anymore? Seems like we used to do that. What changed?

Security v. Privacy by @lhjbui link.medium.com/a5tM13sA8U. Well argued. My question: If moving information from accessible to inaccessible formats doesn’t shield you from preservation, why would shifting information from durable to ephemeral forms do so. Right. It shouldn’t.

An important distinction to understand!

Encryption ≠ Privacy! A company can protect your data from hackers, but still give it away to advertisers. https://t.co/UrxlmAXTW3 #GDPR #privacy #cybersecurity #dfir #infosec https://t.co/ePqcrGr4L8

Can competent counsel fairly claim to be 'overwhelmed' by something they haven't even tried to address? IoT data is just data. Spend a little time digging into it first. E-Discovery's New Challenge: Not Ignoring Internet of Things Data at.law.com/TjqXa3?cmp=sha… via @Legaltech_news
