That is so stupid irresponsible, there should be only very few heavily classified chiefs w/ such access keys to secret data and in the same manner as a few choice honest proven military officials that only have access to our Ballistic Ground Based Atomic Launchers and takes a series of men each equipped with secret keys to use in event of a large national incoming strike.
