I doubt this was ever classified information. It's written all over DoD and NSA requirements and best practices for staff and diplomats.

She was probably briefed repeatedly about this as a member of that committee.

Here's one example:

> Headphones are wired headphones (i.e. not wireless) which can be plugged into a computing device to listen to audio media (e.g. music, Defense Collaboration Services, etc.).[0]

The classified part would be the intelligence that the wireless protocol is compromised. I don't see that in your document.

That's not intelligence, just a precaution.

A precaution presumably based on intelligence. The (presumed) intelligence that the wireless protocol is compromised. As I said before.
