If batch downloading is de facto fraud then the military should have been monitoring their HTTP logs for this suspiciously fraudulent signature and immediately stepped in to prevent the leak. That they had a mandate to secure sensitive data and failed in that task does not make Manning's actions fraudulent. Is security important to US military or not? Both having lax security at the time of breach and then severely punishing a leaker for using trivial tools does not inspire confidence in the competence of our military security.
