The basic opsec failures that unmasked James Comey's Twitter show how hard this stuff is

Absolutely. I know some people in Law Enforcement who work with the cyber. Its all milk-crates of hard drives, beater laptops, burner cell phones. Loaded up with TOR multiple VPNs, and assorted weird forensics and security software. But the rule of thumb is also that they absolutely can not have any sort of social media presence. I’ve been curious about Comey’s comment that he “(has) to be on twitter now”. Assuming the account is his. And the accounts that it was following looks like some sort of PR monitoring.
