Anything put on the internet in any shape or form can be read by anyone with just a little knowledge. And is there FOREVER.
The irony - old fashion just talking or sending a letter through snail mail may be the most secure.

CIA Director David Petraeus
It reminds me of a story that occurred in my neck of the woods not too long ago.
Charles Wang, the founder and former CEO of Computer Associates (now known as CA) never used e-mail. He was the mastermind behind a billion dollar fraud that made him a very wealthy man.
Meanwhile, his minions (including Sanjay Kumar) spilled their guts (via e-mail) and were destroyed by the Feds.
Lesson learned.
US Media to US Citizens: “LOOK! SQUIRREL!!!”
Which is why it's best to be honest.
My dog can catch the occasional squirrel.
Bingo.
A well-covered arse is a happy arse.
Oh for crying out loud! Thanks General Petraeus.
Everything into and out of a communications pipe it tracked. This has been in place in the corporate world for at least 20 years based on my experience. I was a consultant in a civil case like this waaaay back...
google mail... monitored by the NSA ... every key you click
exactly how does the head of the CIA not understand this?
how can ANYONE become the head of our intelligence organization and have such horrid security practices??
doesn’t smell right
I’m leaning towards setup to keep him from testifying on Benghazi
Patraeus should have heeded the old dictum: Wrong no man — write no woman.
“they’ can read through paper these days ~ if they want ~ and no one in USPS would detect the installation of the equipment to do the job.
Nice line.
Look, this is all over the driveby media. It’ll all lead back to Benghazi and hurt the administration.
he may be part of it gang ~

Interesting. I worked for CA in the late 80's and knew both of them. I recall that Wang always carried around a paper notebook in which he wrote all his notes.
