Given how incredibly stupid the leaker seemed to be (chatting in fucking Discord server with Russians about very secret material), I have to wonder: did they really have no limits before?
Or is this leak another operation?
- bell-cot 4y agoNot "no limits"...but "reasonable", "prudent", and "need to know" seem to be missing from their de facto rules & reg's. Years ago, I heard a detailed and all-too-credible account of some serious US secrets being regularly leaked - to an Average Guy, whose (reasonable and innocent) domain name was the ".com" version of an important ".mil" domain. Supposedly, he tried to report the problem to the US govt - and got some pretty nasty push-back, from officers whose only priorities seemed to be denial and butt-coverage. After that, he just deleted the ongoing emails.
