DoD issued an exception to the policy for employees reading information released by the media on personally-owned computers; it's permitted as long as the personally-owned computer isn't connected to government networks. Reading classified information released by the media on government-owned equipment is unauthorized, if it's not certified to process classified material.
Originally members of the DoD were required to report accidentally downloading or viewing the leaked documents on their own computers, which required them to turn in them in to be wiped. After it was understood the huge amount of military members and civilian employees that would be affected by this, an exception to policy was published.
I can't find the order, but it was unclassified.
