The "career interest" I see in this thread are of the Computer Security Industrial Complex, which seem to have quite the bullet as a means of generating income these days. I have objection to this. They're dedicated professionals but sometimes they have big feet.

IMO there is but one mode for computer security - lock and key, perhaps barbed wire, perhaps armed guards. And certainly no connection to the larger internet. That's me reading Bruce Scheiner. Probably badly - computer security bores me no end ( because I know of the one way to do it, you see... )

Bluntly, those who do not serve their own career interests simply won't be in government. The Anthropic Principle - it's not just for physicists.

And that's rather beside the point. I'm by no means up on the details here, but it begins to look like there was no available solution that met requirements.

This is straight up Dilbert "Mordac, Preventer of Information Services" nonsense. Was having email available optional for her? Probably not.

And frankly, the entire narrative is that of imagined threats. I realize that's the mode de jour now but I still have the habits of looking for evidence not made up in the pursuit of political power.

After seeing the Clinton-bashing effort outed completely ( but the rotting zombie corpse of it still in use as a political device - inexplicably ) I'm just not inclined to hold any other opinion. MY conspiracy has been proven and completely outed.

I have little use for either of the Clintons, but there can be no explanation for the furor surrounding the American Spectator in that time except this one. Even when Neocon hit pieces were done on films like "The Power of Nightmares" they conveniently left out reference to the Clinton hit pieces, preferring to shore up the Neocon's evidence and other more tractable things.

I simply find use of The Big Lie patently and irrevocably offensive.
