- bmitc 4y agoGoogle has previously shown in released messages that it knows chats are a "safer" place to discuss sensitive topics and employees were given the ability to not preserve them, and so Google knowingly misled the DOJ and intentionally still deleted the chats probably thinking they could just get away with it. That's clearly what the DOJ is also arguing. When your company is being sued, yes, corporate communication channels become increasingly monitored and not just a line in the employment agreement.
