The fact that they undeleted it is strong evidence that he didn't have discretion in how he performed his job, and thus was actually an employee and not a contractor.
- lstamour 9y agoI’m not sure how that follows. Are you suggesting they don’t keep backups or use a “deletion” flag temporarily, e.g. as part of spam account removal?
- SmellyGeekBoy 9y agoIndeed. I deleted my Twitter account recently, there was a message that data is retained for 30 days to facilitate un-deletion. I assume their internal process is the same.
