Hillary's classified email

[apnu]

67. No. That was never my intention

You're misreading what I'm saying. Let me try it this way:

I'm saying human beings are bad at security, especially complicated security. Security gets in the way of what human beings desire to do and if they become sufficiently annoyed with the security, they will find ways to go around it and get what they want. This is human nature. I work in IT and security in a place governed by federal regulations. I talk to Info Sec people all the time and regulators, we all talk about the point where security becomes so cumbersome the end-user will go around it. We see it all the time, every day, day in and day out.

And I'll tell you from having done this for well over a decade, the point where security is cumbersome to the end-user's perspective is different for every human being.

None of what I just said excuses security lapses. I am simply providing background information as to why this happened.

Because a lot of people seem to think Hillary is the devil incarnate and in this case she is not. The devil, as in the ultimate evil cackling and twirling her tail. Did she do wrong, sure seems like it. Is it bad, yes. Is it of malicious intent? I don't think so.

I think Hillary did what end-users do when then run into something they don't like with technology. And I am shocked and appalled so many people in our government let her get away with this.

She used the server exclusively!!! She's talking to Senators, the POTUS, the Pentagon, CIA, NSA, various ambassadors, world leaders on this thing and not one person long the way said "hold up now, this is fucked!"

That's why I say the problem is far beyond Hillary Clinton. Our whole government failed here.

I do object to the myopic scope of Hillary Clinton on this issue. Nobody's calling for the head of whomever in the CIA that squeaked to Drumheller after he left the agency if that's where he got his intel and gave it to a fucking reporter.

By focusing on Hillary alone makes this a witch hunt when the issue is far bigger and more shocking than some house server Hillary has in the Hamptons.
