Police: Nokia email probe broke no laws

[Juha-Matti Laurio <juha-matti.laurio () netti fi>]

"Finland's National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) says that Nokia did not break any laws by handing over employees' 
email data to the NBI.

In the spring of 2005, the electronics giant asked the central criminal police department to look into whether staff 
members used email to leak company secrets to Chinese competitors.

Nokia has since been publicly accused of violating privacy laws."
