The CIA doesn’t really host anything sensitive on their front facing website. I’m read a bunch of their declassified reports and archived newspapers accusing/exposing the agency of things. Haven’t been shot, yet.

If it’s on the cia website, chances are they no longer care about the content. They could’ve dropped a nuke in Alabama, but if it’s on the website then they’ve determined the American people won’t care enough to do anything about it.
