The IT department would never be responsible for handing over said data. Backing it up, making sure it was recoverable, sure. But IT would have no actions with such.

I assume it would be the HR department or the administrators

Legal will tell the IT department to preserve it and hand it over.

And they will not. You no nothing about IT do you? All obligations and no pay grade. Never does IT go outside their poor ass pay. HR (Legal) as you say, will have to transfer it. Not in our pay grade

You're talking as if there are no MAGA assholes and corporate cocksuckers that work in IT. I hate to break it to you...

Leaking information and providing information to a warranted search I would consider vastly different.

I'm not sure what that has to do with what I said.

You no nothing about IT do you?

I'm not convinced you do, if you genuinely can't imagine a scenario where someone with just enough permissions could be convinced to do this, legally or otherwise.

Same difference. It's out of the doctor's hands.

We all know there are incompetent people in human resources who will turn to their tech person and ask them to do the job. The tech person won't even think twice about the actual intended use of the data that they're sharing.
