Conservatism is the Scientology of politics. They’re beyond rational engagement. Wait. Were you at my Thanksgiving dinner? ---

> [@Chronos](#): > > It was about her using a private e-mail server. Supposedly the server was “unsecured”, except that in actual fact it turned out to be more secure than the official governmental one she was supposed to be using. Horsepucky. Clinton’s ‘secure’ server had RDP enabled to the outside world. They also had VNC enabled on servers on the same network. Guess what? That isn’t secure. Link 1 below. Next, Clinton’s server didn’t have SSL configured for the first two months he was SecState. This is not secure. Link 2 below. Also her server ran a known to be broken version of SSL until the story broke. Then the IT guys frantically updated the certs. That is really not secure/ Furthermore, Clinton’s emails were being backed up to the cloud. This is certainly not secure. Link 3 below. There are other issues besides those, however those are enough to prove that her server was not secure. Claiming Clinton’s email server was more secure than government servers she should have used is just straight up bullshit. The guys running the Clinton servers just didn’t give a fuck about security. Pure amateur hour. Also note, due to the SSL issue no one had to actually penetrate her server to get the emails. Running no SSL means the emails were in plain text. After SSL was installed, the IT guys never updated it and they were running a known to be broken version of SSL until the story broke. That means that anyone intercepting emails on the way to or from the Clinton server could read them so man in the middle attacks are very possible and no one would know. Note, if Ivanka passed classified material through her email accounts then those responsible, including Ivanka, ought to lose their clearance and be charged with the appropriate crime. #1 [More Drama About Hillary Clinton's E-mail Leak - VNC & RDP Open - Darknet - Hacking Tools, Hacker News & Cyber Security](https://www.darknet.org.uk/2015/10/more-drama-about-hillary-clintons-e-mail-leak-vnc-rdp-open/) #2.
