I think the really shocking thing about these leaks is the lack of partitioned access.

As noted:

> In a pointed tweet, Tom Nichols of the Atlantic, who himself had security clearance for 35 years, said: “I hope this guy isn’t the leaker, because I’m gonna have some questions about how a Mass Air Guard guy got CJCS [Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff] briefing slides.[1]

Apparently he was working in intelligence for the Air Guard, but that really doesn't explain the level of access he had.

He was an IT specialist, so it's easy to reason that he had access to a JWICS terminal or something and looked things up from there.

This shouldn't imply access is unpartitioned.

I can look things up on a company Google Drive. Doesn't mean I can see everything!
