None of these acts will amount to treason. That's because treason is rather strictly defined: not just in terms of the actions required (start a war against the US or aid&give comfort to the enemy). It also requires the specific motivation of "adhering to the enemy". Even the actions of Edward Snowden fall far short of this requirement. You could publish the IP address and password[0] for that Windows 95 box running the nuclear launch infrastructure without committing treason, as long as you can make a reasonable case that you did it for any other reason than to help a current "enemy" of the US. "Enemy" was probably meant as the opposing party in an actual war originally, but Russia/China/IS should probably do. [0]: fe80::1%lo0 / пароль
