Good news, everyone. According to a new report from NBC, Chinese cyber attackers were hacking and reading email belonging to U.S. government officials between 2010 and 2014 (and that's just what we know about) under the code name "dancing Panda." Hillary Clinton, who was Secretary of State between 2009 and 2013, made their efforts really easy through her use of a private, unsecure email server at the time. Keep in mind, the FBI is currently conducting a criminal investigation into whether Clinton sent or received classified information on her private system. Clinton was certainly sending highly sensitive government information through her private account and the Chinese likely read it all.
