Should Petraeus Have Taken Computer Lessons Before Schtupping Broadwell?

No one's faulting his taste in ladies - Broadwell is USDA Prime grade-A North Dakota babe - but his taste in computer security sure leaves a lot to be desired. You'd think someone at the CIA could have let him in on PGP encrypted email, or maybe TOR for private web browsing.

Any comment on all this?

Here's the Wikipedia article on TOR:

Do you like it? How hard is it to use?

I guess you feel that it is worth it.

Do you think the security it provides is sufficiently strong to deflect an FBI inquiry?

(I read the TOR article, but I'm afraid it is way over my head.)
