Emailgate: How media mistakes created Hillary Clinton's fake, fake identity

39. No need to insult you, you're doing a great job on your own.

You still haven't managed to quote where I say she broke the law or any regulations. So quote where I said she broke the law or any regulations.

What kind of "computer security" does she need for unclassified emails on servers that were not in her basement

Post your email username and password. You don't have unclassified email, so there's no problem with anyone else looking through your email, right?

If you'd prefer something related to her job, there's going to be information that is helpful to a foreign government but not classified. Repeated discussions between the SoS and France and Germany before making a public statement about sanctions on Russia would let Russia know there is a conflict about sanctions between these countries. Not classified, but helpful to Russia's government.

She was using a commercial outfit -- her system wasn't "homebrew" and it wasn't in her house, even

She used an ISP that offers hosting. We don't know how much they did and how much Clinton's staff did. That company could have done everything, or that company could have provided a spot in their server rack for a Clinton-staff-managed computer, or somewhere in between.

That's why I decry the stupidity of screaming about regulations. Because we do not know which option she took.

At which point you started screaming about regulations.

Choosing to have the pros operate her email shows good judgement, and is a great weapon against anyone claiming she was trying to control information. It's still dumber than having the government do it - State can ask the NSA to audit their security.

Having her staff plug in a computer they control shows poor judgement on security, and fuels claims she was trying to control information. We don't know which happened.

And your dire link goes to a white page. Nothing. Nada. Zip. No placeholder. Not that this would "prove" anything, anyway. So frickin what?

It shows the DNS entry still exists. Otherwise, you would have received a message that the web site could not be found.

Again--State Department emails ended up at wikileaks. Clinton's emails did NOT.

Why would China and Russia give Clinton's emails to wikileaks?

Also, Wikileaks got the emails from an insider explicitly giving them to Wikileaks. No hacking involoved. But hey, let's keep talking about that as proof of security so you don't have to bother your beautiful mind about this incident. Just blindly dismiss it all.
