It’s very bad:
Hillary Clinton didn’t take a basic precaution with her personal e-mail system to prevent hackers from impersonating or “spoofing” her identity in messages to close associates, according to former U.S. officials familiar with her e-mail system and other cyber-security experts.
This vulnerability put anyone who was in communication with her clintonemail.com account while she was secretary of state at risk of being hacked. Clinton said at the United Nations last week that there were no security breaches of her personal e-mail server, which she used to send and receive more than 60,000 professional and personal e-mails. But former cyber-security officials and experts told us that there were gaps in the system.
According to publicly available information, whoever administrated the system didn’t enable what’s called a Sender Policy Framework, or SPF, a simple setting that would prevent hackers sending e-mails that appear to be from clintonemail.com. SPF is a basic and highly recommended security precaution for people who set up their own servers.
Be sure to read the whole thing.
How can she be allowed to get away with this?

This should absolutely be disqualifying. Think about the implications here. http://t.co/YbypDP7Xis

The Secretary of State is like a top 3 target for state-sponsored hackers. This security lapse is INEXCUSABLE. http://t.co/2oTCTHpYYw

It's quickly becoming apparent Hillary and her time as Secretary of State was one gigantic clusterfuck for America:http://t.co/fpzw7tb3QX

@JohnEkdahl It feels like a plot to a very bad movie. How the FUCK does this happen? Oh right, Clinton.

@DrewMTips Think about precisely what this means. It’s unbelievable.
— John Ekdahl (@JohnEkdahl) March 18, 2015
@JohnEkdahl Exactly. I'm honestly having a hard time comprehending that this actually happened. I know it did but it's beyond belief.

It really is.
And here’s one more thing to consider:
I'm telling you, it's going to turn out that the State Department's problems with hackers is because of Hillary. http://t.co/2oTCTHpYYw
