Curt- First, that doesn't matter. If you break the rules doing classified, you break the rules. cliton, had one of her "people" take off the classifications on documents and place them on an unclassified server where clinton could get to them on an unclass server. I break it down in the next three paragraphs. You can skip them, read the last three paragraphs, and get the SCOPE Note. If you have questions, that's what the middle is for. You're call.
CONFIDENTIAL- is on what they call the NIPR system These can be used in offices, etc. If there is someone without the clearance around, you just black your screen out while they're in the room.
SECRET (SIPR network)- Must be in an area/room that meets specific controls for that level of message traffic. Visitors must be vetted to enter the facility. If someone without a SECRET clearance comes in, all the computers must be blacked out and any paperwork must be hidden or covered for the duration of the visit. This is a lower version of a SCIF. Any computer on a SIPR network cannot be put on any other network.
TOP SECRET (JWICS)- JWICS is it's own secure network. Like the other two, you can't plug in a JWICS computer to any other network system (which is part of what clinton did) The computers must pass a government standard for communication control (e.g. your cell phones don't work because of the inability of eves-dropping techniques are employed). There can't be windows in any part of the SCIF. AND any note-taking, must stay inside the SCIF in a safe.
With all of that. cliton's aids got on the JWICS and downloaded classified documents and emails on to either a CD or a jump drive (which makes both of those classified to he highest classification of any document/ email on that drive. The minion then went over the documents and removed the "classification" of the document/email, which she doesn't have the authority to do (and it wasn't even "declassifying" the documents. It was an illegal dumping of the classification.
So. cliton illegally copied classified information, saved it on an illegal server (NOT RATED for even CONFIDENTIAL, much less SECRET or TOP SECRET.
To your statement regarding was this "as bad" as what pete did. The secretary of state would be kept in the loop on global movement of troops, counter-intelligence regarding foreign countries, updates of foreign government movements and issues, updates of operations, gray, brown, and black global ops the state department were tied to, along with nuclear status' of our weapons as well as foreign governments. So absolutely, her information would create FAR MORE HARM than petes.
cliton had so little regard for her position that she kept her daughter's wedding plans on the same phone.
