I don’t know why everybody is making such a “to-do” over smashing the Blackberries with a hammer. That’s a standard, cheap way to dispose of old devices. The real scandal is all the lies that the real, discovered, emails and interviews show.
What happened to all of the devices still missing? (and still vulnerable)
It’s the combination. This is just another small bit of circumstantial evidence supporting the reality of corruption.
If I had no fear about my phones, I’d just turn them in for proper disposal through the IT branch.
She didn’t lose them at all. They were given to her closest confidantes.
There were two uses for these lost phones.
One was the DRAFT EMAIL technique. This is where you create an email, but don’t send it (save it as a draft).
Those who have YOUR LOST phone can then read that draft. The email is never ‘sent’, which makes it more difficult to find and use for evidence. You simply delete the draft after reading it.
The other purpose was for her confidantes to receive her government emails (on those lost phones (Blackberries) and then do a copy and paste, stripping off the security classifications, then sending that to her personal account on her private server.
Remember, even though they claimed these phones were ‘lost’, somehow several were returned which had been smashed with a hammer. If you have it to return, it’s not lost. The media is simply trying to avoid having the public understand what was really going on.
The to do is the dramatic visual it presents. Simply wiping a phone of data by pressing a few buttons is less so. Think Hollywood. Violence is dramatic.
Read between the lines here folks. Malfunctioned my butt.
And we are supposed to believe that her aides destroyed the SIM cards. Baloney.
My earlier post explains all this.
