FBI Director James Comey this week said Mrs. Clinton and her aides were “extremely careless” with classified information, and he said she should have known better.
But he said "she was so unsophisticated in her understanding of both technology and classification that he couldn’t prove she intended to break the law."

"OBAMA'S UNSUNG TECH HERO: HILLARY CLINTON"
"The Secret Hero"
The most surprising and impressive successes on technology policy in this administration have come from perhaps the agency and the woman least expected to deliver them - the State Department and Hillary Clinton. In 2008, she was supposedly techno-challenged and out of touch ... a creature of the 90s ... a luddite who ignored Silicon Valley in the campaign and didn't quite understand the Internet era. Remember that woman? (Remember 2008?)
Today, in 2011, I'm giving Secretary Hillary Clinton the nod as the Obama Administration's improbable MVP in the technology realm. While she has not magically downloaded world peace on every nation's hard drive, she has been the smartest, most aggressive, and most successful senior member of the Obama Administration to attempt to harness all things digital to serve her department's wide-ranging agenda. For that alone, she deserves credit.
She has initiated several innovative technology-based diplomacy and development efforts as a means of re-imagining power relationships in a networked world, under the umbrella of a State-Department marketing slogan--"21st Century Statecraft." So, while I have often noted Administration short-comings (especially at the FCC), here I can give credit where due.
From where I sit, it appears the State Department has become a hub of technology activity. The Department has been dreaming up imaginative ways to use technology and actually implementing them in particular communities, for the benefit of particular people, in ways that further American diplomatic and development goals.
