My comment was not "Why worry if you have nothing to hide?" 

More like, "worry more about the email admin reading your sh*t than the feds" 

A friend of mine posted on FaceBook "The FBI can't recover the deleted emails because Hillary used a special program to delete those" 

My response was this: 

S=$(stat --printf="%s" /home/hclinton/mail/INBOX) 
for i in `seq 1 10` 
do 
dd if=/dev/urandom of=/home/hclinton/mail/INBOX bs=1 count=${S} 
done 

Not a perfect solution, but it is one of "those program". 

I then added that her admin was not a good admin unless he added a line at the top of that program before he ran it. 

cp /home/hclinton/mail/INBOX /home/cfowler/hillary-email.mbox 
# Now wipe her copy clean :)
