Off site data storage. Its pretty SOP for anyone with valuable data that they may need down the road but won't have to access immediately.

And honestly, don't you think this a sloppy and high risk method of trashing the data?

Or perhaps, you think these companies are going to make a big deal out of saying "the paranoid nutjobs are wrong". That billion dollar computer security firms should be jumping to your whims.

All you've got is people saying "we heard the rumors and are looking for anything wrong."
