FBI starting probe of Hillary server to check for espionage
Update: Commenter Mike Honcho asks, “if the server were truly wiped clean wouldn’t it be impossible to determine if espionage (or more specifically an intrusion) occurred?” That was what I meant when I said this suggests that the wipe didn’t succeed. Investigators could be looking at ISP records for this data, too … but they wouldn’t need the server for that. If they’re scouring the server for this data, it means they restored at least part of the hard drive.
Interesting article, in light of the investigation, and the fact that other factors are coming into play.
