All internal communications, unless they are with an attorney and are clearly marked "privileged" and pertain to actual legal advice, are discoverable.

  > All internal communications, unless they are with an attorney and are clearly marked "privileged" and pertain to actual legal advice, are discoverable If a communication doesn't exist, it's not discoverable. If you legislate penalties for a certain type of communication, it shouldn't be surprising when it ceases to exist. This isn't the product of cover ups. It's the long-term effect of penalties dissuading the looking into of certain things. If discovering a breach is penalized, nobody competent will look for breaches--that leaves no discoverable liability.

    You're imagining that every company is going to transition some kind of nefarious mob-style wink-wink, nudge-nudge, no-written records speakeasy, or what? That's really taking things far. This whole line of reasoning is specious, anyway. It's based on a fallacy that enforcing penalties is just going to make everyone lie their asses off to get out scott free. Is society so broken that they can get away with this? Come on.
