I remember some site "debunking" fake news that " Hillary acid washed her server" by saying there was no chemical acid used. Was that Snopes?

FactCheck.org said something very similar to that.

> Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump falsely claimed Clinton “acid washed” 33,000 personal emails to delete them. The FBI said Clinton’s tech team used BleachBit, which is a free software program. It does not use chemicals.
