How HP Kept Tabs On Me for a Year

Unbeknownst to my family and me, someone was scoping out our trash earlier this year — someone hired by Hewlett-Packard Co. The trash study was carried out in January by Security Outsourcing Solutions Inc., a Needham, Mass., investigative firm that H-P employed, according to a briefing H-P officials gave me yesterday. Whether the sleuths ever encountered my toddler’s dirty diapers, H-P said it doesn’t know.

We’ve all heard HP’s side, but now you can hear the other side. Pui-Wing Tam was one of the reporters being spied on, and her blog goes well into detail about the entire ordeal.
