I don't consider it perfectly alright for hackers to be reading my dad's email, much less the President's.

- derefr 11y agoPerfectly alright to the functioning of the government, I mean. It might ruin the President's personal life—and thus get him kicked out of office, maybe—but that's a far less damaging thing than ruining his professional life and thus damaging e.g. peace talks with some foreign power. To put it another way, there are two Presidents: one is a man, and the other is a role. The point of OPSEC is to ensure that the continued execution of the role is not compromised by attacks on the man. Or, in short: long live the king.
