    Aaand that search query got me some files with the top secret flag. Fortunately, they seem to be internal memos on things that are already known to the public, so nothing too immediately dangerous.

    My big question is, why in the ever-loving fuck are these files outside of SIPRNET?

      Contractors and third parties with security clearance. Did you really think any US government agency actually tightened things down properly after Snowden?

      Is it illegal to have these or just distribution is illegal? I’m worried about the implications of you downloading but it isn’t like anyone will care.

      As for how they got there, perhaps via scan-to-email from the Mar-a-Lago copy- and bathroom.

        This shit has been happening for far far longer than cheeto. It’s bipartisan military organization incompetence, and the exact issue that allowed the Snowden leaks to occur.

        Obligatory, I am not a lawyer.

        If random citizen finds it on the street they can’t be punished for having it. But the government can repossess the document at any time.

        The markings tell people with clearance how to handle the documents more than anything else. You have no way of knowing if it’s a legit marking.

      “cloud first” is a mantra that not even the FedGov can refuse.

      Mostly cuz the largest, data mining, and ad-driven companies in the world told them it was better.
