If classified information lands in your inbox, are you responsible?

If you deliberately circumvented rules and laws and then deliberately hid discoverable material then yes, you are reponsible. That's why this isn't a "security review" and is a criminal investigation.

If I have a security clearance and something classified lands in my inbox, I am responsible for reporting it and also going through the appropriate measures to secure the hardware on which the information landed.

I think you could use one of those. We've discussed classified information before and you made it abundantly clear that you have no experience or knowledge about it. That doesn't seem to stop you though, as you still seem to believe you're the expert on everything!

Well, we now have evidence that irony cannot break the Internet.

Which obviously you would do by making a bunch of copies of it and distributing them to people without any security classification.

I know, the guy who has repeatedly declared he knows better than the BLS, has repeatedly declared all social science to be bad, has declared that he knows how classified information handling works better than everyone else despite getting basic facts repeatedly wrong once tried to call someone else an 'expert on everything'.

Speaking of social science you should look into, research the Dunning-Kruger effect. They should have a picture of you on the page, haha.

I have never claimed to have any special knowledge about handling classified information. I HAVE posted links from people who ARE experts on such. Actual, identifiable people with verifiable credentials, not some kid pretending to be an expert anonymously on the Internet. On the other hand, you have continually put yourself forth as THE expert, and used your supposed expertise to tell us we're all idiots for believing that Hillary setting up a private server in her basement and regularly handling classified documents is anything other than grand. And yet, the FBI has been investigating just that for over a year now. Occam's razor suggests you are once again filled with that which is strong and promotes plant growth.

WASHINGTON — State Department staffers wrestled for weeks in December 2010 over a serious technical problem that affected emails from then-Secretary Hillary Clinton’s home email server, causing them to temporarily disable security features on the government’s own systems, according to emails released Wednesday.

The emails were released under court order Wednesday to the conservative legal advocacy group Judicial Watch, which has sued the State Department over access to public records related to the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee’s service as the nation’s top diplomat between 2009 and 2013.

The emails, reviewed by The Associated Press, show that State Department technical staff disabled software on their systems intended to block phishing emails that could deliver dangerous viruses. They were trying urgently to resolve delivery problems with emails sent from Clinton’s private server.

“This should trump all other activities,” a senior technical official, Ken LaVolpe, told IT employees in a Dec. 17, 2010, email. Another senior State Department official, Thomas W. Lawrence, wrote days later in an email that deputy chief of staff Huma Abedin personally was asking for an update about the repairs. Abedin and Clinton, who both used Clinton’s private server, had complained that emails each sent to State Department employees were not being reliably received.

After technical staffers turned off some security features, Lawrence cautioned in an email, “We view this as a Band-Aid and fear it’s not 100 percent fully effective.”

The AP initially reported Wednesday that the emails described security features being turned off on Clinton’s own private server, but State Department spokesman John Kirby clarified hours later that the emails described “a series of troubleshooting measures to the department’s system — not Secretary Clinton’s system — to attempt to remedy the problem.”

So it turns out that problems with Senator Clinton's server cause the state department to compromise security on its own servers..... WOOOOOT TOUCHDOWN!!!!!

thanks for that......

Sweet Lord.

I would make yet another comment about electing this woman, but, you know . . . Trump.

The best article I've found, with actual (gasp!) emails rather than just spin on emails-

That's an even weaker offense than I originally posted.

I've said it before and I'll say it again; the state department and I'm sure this goes for many federal agencies, simply did not have an adequate modern communication setup and because of that SoS's had to break the rules to do their job effectively. Who knows if the issue has even been fixed.

Which apparently didn't happen w/ Clinton or her team. Nice innuendo, however.
