7. The autodeleter on my phone overheard Greenwald's phone autodeleter.

My autodeleter said the stuff overheard was something along the lines of "I'll show that POS". After listing what it overheard, my autodeleter put up a flag saying that it was done for the weekend. Darn, all those attack emails and tweets of mine might now be found. Word of warning, NEVER download a cheap, nosey autodeleter, you may end up a creek when you don't want to be.

10. The legal concept of spoliation of evidence is applicable

This is a concept that is applicable https://civilprocedure.uslegal.com/discovery/spoliation-of-evidence/

Spoliation of evidence is a term often used during the process of discovery. Spoliation of evidence happens when a document or information that is required for discovery is destroyed or altered significantly. If a person negligently or intentionally withholds or destroys relevant information that will be required in an action is liable for spoliation of evidence.

When a crucial document is lost by spoliation, the courts may try to infer the original information by applying spoliation inference rule. Spoliation inference rule is a negative evidentiary inference. When applying the rule, courts will review the altered document with inference against the spoliator and in favor of the opposing party. The theory behind spoliation inference is that when a party has destroyed evidence, it shows that the party had consciousness of guilt or other reasons to avoid evidence. Hence, the court will conclude that the evidence was not in spoliator’s favor.
