Metadata! That term is used a lot in the eDiscovery world and many people use it but are unsure of its meaning. So what is metadata? Let’s look to a reliable eDiscovery resource for an answer.
In the first two parts of this series on SNS and eDiscovery we discussed the Why, What and How. The third part will address the “OK, we identified and collected it, now what?” part…..Social Networking Sites (SNS) data is just like any other ESI.
Now that we know SNS information is potentially discoverable and where to find it, how do we go about preserving it? No matter what method you choose for persevering SNS info, remember these 8 key tips…
Pipl.com is another great (scary) site. Great because it provides a one-stop shop for searching SNS info about a person, in addition to other personal information….I went to pipl.com and typed in my name and current city. It returned the name of my Dad, brother, my age, middle name, the fact that I used to live in Miami, Larchmont and New York City. Understand the scary part now?
