If you think this was a 21yo acting alone, you are mistaken. This kid was set up and allowed to get this info. He was profiled and picked because he would leak the info.
The Ukrainian war lies were/are going to come out, this way it's controlled and redirects focus on the kid for leaking top secret information that would otherwise actually expose the propaganda and lies we are being fed by this corrupt admin.
And you see the media jumping on the kid not the information that was leaked..
Look over here not over there!
The big bonus is that the government now uses this for an excuse to further monitor all internet activity and collect information on private citizens and their communication.
Welcome to Orwells 1984
But don't worry, it's all conspiracy theory.
