Al,
I worked for IBM for 30 years...I can't tell you the non sense that got classified during and after the fact...silly stuff.
Then you should appreciate the trouble that is caused when some employee goes outside of the system and does his or her own thing when it comes to electronic security. It's a massive headache to figure out what info was exposed and how much risk that represents to IBM's intellectual property.

And IBM has to do its due diligence if it wants any of its patents to hold up. Otherwise the courts can and will invalidate any patent IBM has in a dispute, because the owner of a patent has responsibilities to safeguard it.

This is why I consider Hillary's e-mail scandal to be relevant. It doesn't matter how much classified info existed in her e-mails. In fact, if I had to bet, I'd bet that the amount of sensitive info that got exposed to our rivals wasn't all that much. But that's not the point.

The fact is that she broke the law, in spirit if not in letter (though I believe she also broke the letter). As a result, the State Department has to spend an extraordinary amount of time and resources to figure out how much damage she did and how much risk this represented to the security and welfare of our nation.

All because she "didn't want to carry around multiple devices." Yeah, right.
