Corporate Irresponsibility

 HP SPY vs SPY
 
According to CNET news some one at Hewlett- Packards (HP) boardroom was covertly speaking to the media about confidential business. Therefore, HP CEO's took matters into there own hands and started interviewing all of the board members, but the leakier wasn't identified. So HP decided to go out side the law and hired spies to spy on its own board members to locate the source of a press leak. That was monumentally bad judgment. Therefore,The HP probe is now under investigation by the state attorney general. The Securities and Exchange Commission also is investigating whether the company violated any regulations by not disclosing Perkins' objections to the probe when the company reported his resignation earlier this year. 
   
 HP admitted to hiring private detectives to illegally obtain the personal phone records of board members suspected of leaking company secrets to the media. Five people have since been charged, including former chairwoman Patricia Dunn.
