[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The WaPo is reporting that Jack Teixeira is an IT tech, which would explain how he had access to the docs.[/quote]

He’s like a low-rent Snowden. Except he wasn’t making that big contractor money.

What’s shocking is that flags were not auto-triggered when an IT tech in the national guard was accessing & printing these files. The content in these documents have nothing to do with his job. And why do SCIFs have printers?!? That’s gotta go too.[/quote]

No. Snowden was a whistleblower. This guy is a cult leader. Very different aspirations and ethics.[/quote]

Snowden was not a whistleblower. Whisitleblowers do not work with enemies of the state like Assange and then end up under the protectorate of Moscow.[/quote]

Assange is not an enemy of the state.  It's actually pretty brazen he's being tried at all. [/quote]

Your data is out of date.  Dude is not a white knight.[/quote]

He's not. But some of us know how to distinguish his intelligence leaks from the rest of his life. I would argue that its the severity of the sentences that push these people into the arms of our enemies. There needs to be some middle ground between being complicit in problematic surveillance by the state and not ever telling the public...and being treated as a traitor and sent to prison for life.

But this conversation is neither here not there with this new guy, who leaked intelligence only to impress teens, apparently. Boy is he stupid. There is no leavening of a greater ethical vision, here. [/quote]

I'm not talking about the rapes.  I'm referring to his role in 2016.

Reality Winner on the other hand had good intentions.  Even Chelsea Manning had some ethical saving graces.  The idea of Assange was unfortunately different than the reality of him.

This guy though was just chasing internet clout.[/quote]
