Note how the article says "voter registration rolls" but the headline says "voter systems", creating implication that these are systems that are used for actual vote, while maintaining plausible deniability in case they'd be called on it ("we didn't say voting systems, but voter systems!"). This is a pure journalistic malpractice, and it happens often enough to think it is done on purpose.
> they did leak the information that they acquired - clearly to shape the political situation. Still reprehensible.
This is not only legal, but has been done many times by all MSM outlets. Some got well-respected prizes for it. Some got movies made in their honor for it. May be still reprehensible, but certainly not something one usually gets indicted for.
