A meme from 2012 could be the reason that Hillary Clinton's use of a private email server was exposed. Internet users joked around making "texts from Hillary" memes using a photo of Clinton using her Blackberry. At the time, Blackberrys were banned for high level governmental jobs because of security issues. The visibility of the meme shined a light on the issue. The Judicial Watch's lawsuit led to the deposition of State Department official Karin Lang.who admitted that the meme had worried officials.
