@jschuh@infosec.exchange A combination of these three are usually where people with your expertise trip up when talking about the Clinton case. i.e. the SecState's daily schedule was Classified, by her own authority, until the date passes, after which it was automatically declassified. So when she said "declassify today's schedule and send it to my Blackberry", that is all SOP at State (it's her authority) even if inconceivable at CIA or NSA.

@opendna@mastodon.sdf.org EO 13526¹ literally designates the classification authorities and defines the "uniform system for classifying, safeguarding, and declassifying national security information" that they all must comply with. Your whole premise that “each department has its own Classified system” is just pure nonsense, and the rest of your comments are a bit of non-sequitur plus implicit admission that you didn’t actually read the post you’re replying to. This rampant sort of confidently-wrong-reply-guy bullshit is why Mastodon has never really clicked with me. It's also why I won’t be wasting any more of my time in a back and forth over this. _ ¹ https://obamawhitehouse.archives.gov/the-press-office/executive-order-classified-national-security-information
