これもなんだかよく分からない話なのだが、C|Netに情報を漏らした者を特定するためにchairwomanのPatricia Dunnが役員連中の自宅の電話を盗聴し、その結果Tom PerkinsというVCstが辞めたというのだが?
In short, Dunn searched for a board member who leaked info to CNET News by investigating private records. She found the leaker, who refuses to resign, but Perkins (who later found he was also a victim of pretexting) quit the board. The SEC (and Perkins) say that HP hasn’t properly filed the reason for Perkins’s resignation — because HP doesn’t want to implicate itself for Dunn’s risky behavior.

Patricia Dunnというのは、Carly FiorinaがCEOを退任したとき一緒に降格されられた人物のようだが。
The daughter of a showgirl and vaudeville actor, Dunn, 52, wanted to be a journalist. Fearing this career move might leave her impoverished, Dunn started as a secretary and eventually climbed to the top of Barclays Global Investors, the asset management arm of the England-based financial firm. After a bout with breast cancer, Dunn has returned to Barclays in a nonexecutive role and is now focused on corporate governance issues and client relations. Earlier this year Dunn grabbed headlines with the ousting of Hewlett-Packard Chief Executive Carleton Fiorina; she serves as the struggling computer and printer company’s nonexecutive chairman.
