So many workers are bombarded with test phishing emails from IT and constant reminders and training about data security etc over data that isn't national-security-level classified. How tf do people keep accidentally leaking such classified info? Do you think it's people who grew up reading spy novels during the cold war regretting that they never became a double agent? They just decided to live their best life and while they don't know who to leak classified docs with, by god they're going to share them with someone.
Well in Poland for example every month or few there is some scandal about some company just dumping millions of personal data or accounts data or some other super-business-secrets in the trashcan outside of office so people got used to it.
To be honest, most militaries post their "restricted" manuals online so there's less orders for the physical copies. Now, most of them don't have anything particularly spicy and maybe the copies online are an older version but the covers will still say they're supposed to be restricted or limited.
The user that posted it might not even work in the military, he said he found it somewhere else online.
It's hard to know if that's worse lol. Unless it's what D61 said.
