If I was leaking something of this magnitude I would be *extremely* paranoid, and frankly require that Politico cannot publish the PDF itself, but must retype the entire document in-full and display it on their website. (Let's hope there aren't different versions of the document floating around with slightly altered sentences to track down a leaked version).
Reality Winner was caught partly by The Intercept's poor opsec, and investigators reviewing the microdots on the PDF scan.

- cozzyd 4y agoIf I were leaking something of this magnitude, I'd "forget" a copy at a DC Starbucks frequented by journalists.
- supernova87a 4y agoI was just thinking similarly! I would be pretty impressed if the Court had systems where the authoring justice's / clerk's software would insert various difficult-to-detect variations into each copy distributed to the other justices. For example, slight differences in the footnotes / case reference numbers that would be very hard to detect on casual glance. Or even traps like displaced punctuation marks unique to each copy. But somehow I doubt it.
