I'll say it. There's something very wrong with the FBI deeply investigating Steve Jobs and then releasing the report upon his death.
Agreed. - Graham Steel
I thought they didn't release it, it was FOIA'd by a third party? As for the investigation in the first place, agree it was intrusive and unnecessary... I would bet, Mr Wales, they have a nice thick dossier on you as well. Anyone with money or influence probably comes under scrutiny. - Bill Hooker
Jobs was up for http://trade.gov/pec... . Should we know what these people's neighbors thought of their landscaping? No.
(2) Only release files 30 years after someone is deceased.
Some policy options: (1) after a deep background investigation, if nothing actionable is found, destroy the file after 3 months.
