The IRS Isn't Careful?

I found this article online today:

http://voices.washingtonpost.com/securityfix/2009/05/report_irs_created_dumpster-di.html


Apparently even the IRS is not following it's own advice. Or the law for that matter.

The article links to the 29 page report from the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration which states that investigators

"had trouble finding anyone responsible for overseeing most of the facilities that the IRS contracted with to burn or shred sensitive taxpayer documents."
That report is available here:
