I'm curious where you feel her role as a public official comes into play with this. She was using the Yahoo account for government business and seemed to indicate that she was doing so, in part, to evade public records laws. If someone in her office had seen damning emails in that account and put them out there, I would consider it a valid case of whistleblowing as she was using the account for government business. This case is obviously different because it is someone outside the whole deal who gained unauthorized access and then put everything out in public view. I don't think that's right but on the other hand, I think that correspondence in her official capacity in that account is fair game for being looked at by the public. So I'm a little conflicted.
