| Edward Snowden says Hillary Clinton 'ridiculous' to think emails were secure |
| 2015-09-04 |
| [The Guardian] Edward Snowden has branded as "completely ridiculous" the idea that Hillary Clinton's personal email server was secure while she was secretary of state. Systems Subject Matter Expert Mr. Edward Snowden who now resides in Moscow. The National Security Agency whistleblower was speaking in an interview with Al-Jazeera. In 2014, Clinton accused Snowden of inadvertently helping terrorists. Since then she has toned down such criticism and said the NSA needs to be more transparent. On Thursday, Snowden was asked what he would say to Clinton now that she is being investigated for sending emails containing classified information while using a private server. "This is a problem," Snowden said, "because anyone who has the clearances that the secretary of state has, or the director of any top-level agency has, knows how classified information should be handled." He added: "If an ordinary worker at the State Department or the CIA ... were sending details about the security of embassies, which is alleged to be in her email, meetings with private government officials, foreign government officials and the statements that were made to them in confidence over unclassified email systems, they would not only lose their jobs and lose their clearance, they would very likely face prosecution for it." Who should know more about classified traffic, leaks, hacking, espionage, and treason. |
