This wasn’t a forensic extraction of data from a recovered hard drive, it was a drag net across email server, file servers, content management systems, wikis, phone records, written notes … basically every form of communication that left any trace. The ABC staff literally copied all the stuff that might be interesting (found using keyword searches) into a folder, which the ABC legal and AFP investigators went through one by one to determine what was of interest to AFP. The items of interest was then copied to a “sealed” package which the AFP pinky swears nobody will look at for two weeks while the ABC seeks an injunction.
