Weird.
Also, I thought the whole point of logs is that you can't delete them yourself. They get written to an external place and then they can't be edited.
Most users can’t clear their computer logs, but IT techs have a lot more access. I haven’t ever worked somewhere that has any kind of logs that nobody can wipe/delete, IT staff kind of need to be trusted or they can do all sorts of chaos and damage.
You're thinking of audit logs, few systems are critical enough to warrant that, no system mentioned in the story would typically have audit logs unless we're talking in the military or similar.
