It's common logic: The people who are paying you own your work product and therefore, because we the people are paying government officials, the e-mails of those people are "owned" by we the people.
Whether talking about large corporations or government, it should be -- and usually is -- written policy that all work-related e-mails be sent from official corporate or government accounts and that the corporation or government own each and every one of those e-mails.
Why, therefore, are Hillary Clinton and other government officials, both elected and appointed, not expected or required to adhere to such a logical concept? Shouldn't our elected and appointed government officials abide by standard business practice?
All governmental e-mail exchanges should be conducted via secure government e-mail accounts on secure government-issued computers and/or equipment. We the people "own" those communications, and the government officials should be accountable to us.
