In reply to Yooden Vranx. Honestly, it's about time they held someone accountable for this! Leaking classified info is no joke, even if the government is shady sometimes. We need to protect national security.

Yo, this is straight-up ridiculous! Like, don’t folks get that the government be watching all of us, even our allies? And now they got the nerve to punish a soldier for laying it all out there? That’s just wild!

I feel bad for the guy. He made a mistake and he seems genuinely sorry. 15 years feels too much for a young person who got caught up in something.

In reply to orval.carter95. Yeah, I totally agree. Whistleblowing can be important, but there’s a line that shouldn't be crossed. Lives are at stake, and it's more complicated than just doing what's right in your head.

In reply to lela.sauer9. I totally agree! 15 years seems way too lenient for such a serious crime. Leaking classified info can put lives at risk and it makes you wonder what kind of access he had in the first place. People who deal with national security ought to be way more careful.

I don’t even understand how someone in the military could have access to those kinds of documents 😕. It’s like putting a child in a candy store alone 🍭! They need to tighten security 🔒.

He thought he was being a whistleblower, but those kinds of secrets can totally put lives at risk, you know? I get his intentions might’ve been good, but the consequences are pretty heavy.
