Then again, snowden did do that as well.

So depends on what was being leaked, if it was something closer to current conflict, then it is crummy.

If you’re leaking classified information about our government violating human rights (such as the surveillance state violating our right to privacy) it’s not really you betraying your country. I’d consider that more revealing the fact that your country is betraying you. On the other hand if you’re just leaking classified information that reveals no wrongdoing for the sake of leaking classified information, yes you’re betraying your country.

Or worse, if you're revealing classified information which could or does place soldiers and people in immediate danger.

I mean the question is not which is crummy, its what kind of info was being leaked.

THen we decide if it was crummy or not.

Id be worried if the info being leaked was say, current tactics, list of soldiers/leaders currently serving.

Judging from Snowdens notoriety, I assumed that it was because the info he leaked wasnt of the above.

Yeah Snowden was a "whistleblower" type wher he confirmed what the govt. was doing, manning released a plethora of shit ranging from recordings of military having fun blowing up civilians via helicopter to sensitive intelligence about people, military placement, etc, I doubt she had good intentions either considering the size and range of info

I think Manning's intentions were good, they were just extremely neglectful over what they actually released

HRC video with a weird glitch... wtf??? https://twitter.com/AlexMohajer/status/957078762440441856

@Kane.🇺🇸.Nexus ?

Really interesting interview id thought id share with you all

```Coincheck has fallen victim to a hack attack that reportedly stole more than $400 million worth of cryptocurrencies.

The Tokyo-based exchange is a platform where consumers can buy or sell a number of cryptocurrencies, and this appears to be the largest monetary theft of cryptocurrency ever reported.
```

stop keeping your money in exchanges

there is 0 liabiltiy with cryptocurrencies in most (every?) country

sooooooooooooooo many exchanges have been "hacked" over the years

Yeah.

I haven't jumped into crypto yet because I want to know what I am doing before I do.

obviously using crypto exchanges is fine

As exchanges, yeah, but they're not banks.

but withdraw anything you aren't trading

Yeah.

i have ~$1,000 in exchanges rn

I remember asking Tim one time if he could give a more clear kind of 'tutorial' to crypto, but his answer was basically 'make a coinbase account.' lol

lmfao

crypto trading is absolute cancer

though the barrier to entry is still lower than real stocks

It's just gambling really, payout is either in a day or never

lol

I got a check from mtg mountain or whatever the fuck it was

mtgox

it was like, 25 cents or some shit

@pukeblood not really

it's not hard to make money from exchanges

the stuff is too unstable to me at this point

lots of people take the quick route and sell/buy way higher/lower than market price

and a lot of money funnels back from fees, expansion, and investors

there isn't enough valid real-world equiv short of using it to launder money

and drugs
