So I was wondering about the whole wikileaks situation. If the ordinary person out there has access to classified documents how come so many people are forbitten - including military contractors & people in public service etc. even friends of mine - from looking at them? Technically shouldn't that makes them not be classified anymore? This is very bizarre....
and this is what the government wrote to each one of their agencies...
"To the contrary, classified information, whether or not already posted on public websites or disclosed to the media remains classified, and must be treated as such by federal employees and contractors, until it is declassified by an appropriate U.S. Government authority," <--okay??? That makes no sense at all...was someone high when they wrote this...sorry I just need someone to explain this to me..I don't completely understand...is it my lack of english skills?

As for those wanting to read this material, I would consider that a very foolish risk to take. Anything significant in the data has already been reported on the news, so putting yourself at risk by drawing yourself to the attention of the various U..S. Government's Anti-Terrorist Cyber Opt's forces would have to be a monumental exercise of poor judgement!! Once you've caught the eye of these organizations, nothing in your life will ever be private or sacred again, trust me on that!!
I see a big difference in accepting a missile or information that is all over the internet that is only embarrassing but not really from value. The US just needs to learn from this and make these things not that easy to obtain.
Thank you for trying to explain it to me, I give you that
Sorry I think it is not a good way to do damage control.
