Vice President Martin Reynolds said he thinks Hewlett-Packard Board Chair Patricia Dunn did the right thing to investigate leaks of proprietary HP information to the news media, and that he doesn’t think she knew the private investigative firm she retained would use pretexting to conduct the investigation. (Pretexting is the practice of getting a company to turn over consumer records by pretending to be the consumer in question.) HP has said the practice was used to obtain the personal phone records of board members and nine reporters. HP’s board met yesterday, and is meeting again late today, in the wake of investigations into the practice by the offices of the California Attorney General and the U.S. District Attorney’s office, Northern California District. PodTech’s Catherine Girardeau interviewed Reynolds to get his take on the role of HP Chair Patricia Dunn, who ordered the investigation into the leaks.
