This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
In the 2000s I thought that due to more and more people being on the internet, stories like this would be very common in the future, not just for the government, but private entities too.
In reality: Most things that happen at most workplaces are not interesting enough to leak, and most people do not want to risk their careers for something like this. So it's still relatively rare.

Shoulda become president first THEN leaked classified documents to russia. He'd be fine in that case.
No no no, see:
FBI Director Christopher Wray said that his sentence should serve as "a stark warning to all those entrusted with protecting national defense information: betray that trust, and you will be held accountable."
They mean business! For real this time. No take backs. While supplies last. Void in some states. Not all locations participate. Some restrictions apply.
Not only wouldn't he see a punishment, but he'd be elected a second time to do it again!
You fool, you're only supposed to post things like that on the Warthunder forums!
I thought I read this before, and sure enough it's a follow up to a 2023 article
TL;DR: 21 year old national guard leaked classified documents on Discord for attention and got caught for it. Nice work.
Guy was only leaking to show off to a bunch of teenagers. Loser
To be fair, leaking government secrets is the most effective defense against momma jokes.
Your momma leaks government secrets.
Yo momma's lips are so loose, she leaks government secrets.
governmentsecrets.pdf , Ha! Gotcha!

What does being admin has to do with it?
No idea why they worded the article that way. The person going to prison is the person who leaked the documents and was also the admin of the discord server they leaked it to.
Thank you for confirming. I don't click articles on socials due to tracking but that's my understanding also.
So the wording is FUD as I suspected...
His crime is posting classified info as insider and he can't even pretend to be a whistleblower.
Either way, folks take note! This is how modern propaganda works. Subtle and you have to know facts before hand in order not to fall for it
This is how modern propaganda works.
maybe it is modern propaganda, maybe the author is just incompetent moron trying to get as much clicks as possible 😔
Discord servers are restricted ring-fenced sections of the internet. They are often used by gaming groups and communities as secure chat rooms but are also used by fringe organisations to push their ideologies and discuss wild conspiracy theories and plots.

Might Discord be, potentially, in some way related to the notorious hacker known as 4chan 🤣
Yeah, they should lock them both, just to be on the safe side.
Who ever wrote that have superficial understanding of how these services operate...
They should not be writing on the topic if they don't properly researched the topic.
They at best an idiot, but likely just a useful idiot for the people in charge.
Where is the editorial quality?
🤡
but likely just a useful idiot for the people in charge
that's little bit too harsh. the authors of the article write general news, they do not specialize in technology, and it is pretty clear none of them is gamer (i suspect that telegraph correspondent to united states doesn't have much free time to waste on gaming 😂).
so while that paragraph is stupid to the degree where it is bordering on funny, i am not looking for malicious intent behind it.
first of all, admin of some random discord server is something else than discord admin, but that wouldn't give such nice tabloid headline...
Brain dead "journalism" strikes again!
15 years to flex as a Discord mod. 😂
Was this a more significant leak than the Gulf oil spill? I think not.
The people responsible for that one are rich, and they can do no wrong.
