- greyman 17y agoYes, this is what Michael is pointing out and he is somewhat right. Otherwise, if something negative leaks out of the company, they might just call it confidential and nobody could publish it...
- barrkel 17y agoWhy doesn't it count as trafficking in stolen property? The documents weren't leaked, they were stolen. They are not "confidential", they are stolen property.
