Motions practice, lawyers are being extremely dramatic about notice and prior disclosure of witnesses, accusations of "sandbagging us"

UBER: Has Stroz Friedberg done work for Google? WAYMO: OBJECTION. ALSUP: Objection’s overruled.
Afficher cette discussion -
Uber questioning is showing what Stroz worked on: 1.5 million documents that got boiled down to 400,000; interviews of all of the diligenced employees; even field work (the private investigators dispatched to find out what happened to the Drobo disks)
Afficher cette discussion -
It was supposed to be for attorneys' eyes only, it never went to Uber executives in case it created some kind of a conflict.
Afficher cette discussion -
(Friedberg is a lawyer; their clients were lawyers; part of Stroz's deal is forensics analysis that can be putatively covered by attorney-client privilege; clearly it did not work out here)

On cross-exam, Uber is now clarifying last access dates. A number of the files on AL's computer were last accessed 3/10. Friedberg says last access could be about opening the file but it could also be an automated process.
Afficher cette discussion -
It could be, for example, a virus scan, or syncing between the dropbox and the local folder.

A lot of those last-access timestamps were really closely clustered together iirc, automated process would make sense to me but also [link to youtube video of michael douglas's speech in wall street]

Now we're going over the part where AL took the disks to Shredworks and had the Drobo disks shredded. ........... for some reason Uber is going ahead and going into the whole clownshow where the PIs went there and couldn't find definitive evidence that the disks were shredded

I loved this saga because it's so convoluted and makes literally no sense https://www.theverge.com/2017/10/3/16408724/waymo-uber-lewandowski-travis-kalanick# …pic.twitter.com/P9X9UbTxk4

it's a conspiracy theory without an underlying theory

Uber tl;dr of Stroz report: they went over a bajillion documents and didn't find shit Waymo tl;dr of Stroz: they went over a bajillion documents and there's more stuff that was deleted and erased and why tho
Afficher cette discussion -
There were four USB devices that were connected to AL's computer, they were wiped, Stroz never examined — to be clear, no indication those devices got to Otto or got to Uber

Witness is currently a former Stroz Friedberg employee. MAUGERI: It’s difficult to determine what happened to these files because they were deleted and not active on the device

Maugeri just said that *if given more time by the employer* they could have determined other external devices and what happened to files
Afficher cette discussion -
WAYMO: But it was outside of the protocol? Maugeri quibbles
Afficher cette discussion -
Maugeri quibbles, then ends with a repeat of "these files were not on the device, it was difficult to determine..." which is sure to play great with jury
Afficher cette discussion -
this could literally mean nothing and the line of questioning is framing it in the right way for Waymo
Afficher cette discussion -
So Waymo story is that Stroz found all this stuff about Anthony deleting things and having Google CI, and also that they were in cahoots with Uber to cover up these other devices?
Afficher cette discussion -
Maugeri acknowledges that they did not look at any Ottomotto servers or Ottomotto computers outside of the personal devices / "Ottomotto-related" laptops of the diligenced employees
Afficher cette discussion -
E.g., they did not show up at Ottomotto offices to do their analysis
Afficher cette discussion -
Cannot foreclose the possibility that Google information reached Uber servers through sources she did not investigate
Afficher cette discussion -
Cross-exam for Uber, establishing that Ottomotto employees freely gave passwords / credentials to various email accounts / the dropbox account so that stroz could examine
Afficher cette discussion -
I don't think this is going to end up in the case but this was the absolute #1 funniest thing in the stroz report to me, personallypic.twitter.com/SBdZQN7RD9

Uber trying to question Maugeri about why the last access timestamps are all the same for many files, she begins to answer. WAYMO: Objection, foundation. ALSUP: Do you know what you’re talking about? MAUGERI: Yes, I do. ALSUP: Alright, we’ve laid a foundation.
Afficher cette discussion -
Maugeri testifies that a software update could have changed the last access timestamp and so forth.
