Sort of like how Bernie got locked out of DNC databases during the last campaign, etc., it gets hard to believe all the coincidences sometimes.

- cwkoss 7y agoBernie's campaign reported the vulnerability in NGPVan's platform to them and campaign asked the user who saw HRC data to resign. Then they were suspended and the 'snooping in Hillary's data' spin appeared the next day.
- favorited 7y agoLogs showed 4 staffers accessed the data (including running more than 20 search queries), and only one was fired (and he was fired, not "asked to resign"). It's not spin, it's what happened.
- cwkoss 7y agoNGPVan is a buggy SaaS platform. They discovered and reported a bug in the platform that displayed HRC's information to the wrong customer. 'Snooping' is a biased mischaracterization.

I think there are a lot of ways to interpret what she said, and it sounded to me, when I read it, that she was referring to the online foreign influence campaigns, but since the discussion was informal and edited, it's hard to know the exact context, or even what her hand in following through on that would look like.
