In reply to the discussion: Sanders camp suspends two more staffers over data breach [View all]JDPriestly
(57,936 posts)that the vendor is off the hook.
The vendor allowed a breach of Hillary's data to occur that placed Hillary's information into a database that Sanders' employees could query.
There is most likely a contract between the DLC and the vendor that defines the duties of the vendor. The DLC should have and probably did have a provision in that contract that required the vendor to protect the integrity of each candidate's data and required the vendor to secure and maintain a firewall between the candidates' accounts and information.
It is the likely and apparent breach of that provision that I presume would have been in that contract that CAUSED the problem.
The vendor is most likely responsible for the breach of Hillary's information.
That Sanders requires his staff to meet high standards and not take advantage of such a breach is Sanders decision and demonstrates the high standard for integrity and honesty to which Sanders holds his employees.
Hopefully we will see an independent and thorough investigation with broad discovery in this situation so that the relationship if any between Hillary supporters, the DNC and the DNC's vendors will be examined.
