Except you can? Have you never taken personal notes on a piece of paper near your desk only to notice that you wrote down some work information on it elsewhere

Granted TFA is not about an accident but you can accidentally take documents home just like you can accidentally walk into a SCIF with a wireless microphone (your cellphone).
- 2OEH8eoCRo0 3y agoBy innocent I mean lawful, not benign, since it is unlawful to take them home.
- mcpackieh 3y agoNo, you can't. You could accidentally take classified documents/information out of a SCIF, but not innocently. This is a strict liability offense, so it being an accident doesn't make you innocent. If it weren't so, then every spy trying to exfiltrate documents would do it 'accidentally'. "Oops, I accidentally put the wrong documents into my bag. Oops, I accidentally left the bag on a bus where, completely unknown to me, that Russian agent with a diplomatic passport picked it up. Terrible mistake, but you can't prove I meant for this to happen." It doesn't work like that; even if it was a genuine accident that doesn't get you out of trouble.
