[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The kid will be charged.  But, things need to change.  They need to go up the chain of command and see what kind of supervision was in place.

If a weapon is lost in an Army unit. Everything stops in the unit until it is found.  If it is not found, heads roll.
If a soldier dies in a training accident.  Head roll.

If a ship runs aground, the Captain is fired.

What rules were in place to prevent this leak other than trust in the Airman?

There is a reason car insurance is more expensive for people under 25.  There is a reason car rental agencies restrict rentals to young people.

This is not a defense of what the Airman did.  It is clear, though, that this is risky business to let a 21 year old --or even anyone--have access to this span of information.  [/quote]

[b]SECDEF Austin already said they are going to tighten measures.  But it's not like the system is new, it's been operating the same way for decades.[/quote[/b]]

Until supervisors and the chain is made responsible --and made to pay for things like this--nothing will change.  What kind of supervision was this kid getting?  Why would a low level IT guy in a Guard unit in Massachusetts be accessible to all this information?  I'm having trouble understanding why anyone in that unit would need access to all of it.
