“The Sarbanes-Oxley Act is largely related to corporate financial reporting, but one section, Section 802, imposes severe penalties for ‘destroying, mutilating, concealing, falsifying records, documents, or tangible objects’ with intent to impede or stall a federal investigation. Its vague and far-reaching rhetoric allows it to be applied to even non-tangible, personal information like stored records of online activity. uch broad interpretation of a law that was originally meant to apply to large corporations highlights already simmering questions of what the federal government’s access to citizens’ data should actually look like.”
