    To be fair, it’s probably more about the IT contractors and consulting firms that didn’t implement security policies or configurations correctly on the S3 buckets for the governments they’re working for. The AWS products aren’t opening up things to the public internet without auth. Which I bet most of you knew.

    Example: Accenture left a trove of highly sensitive data on public servers (2017)

    The best thing about fascism is that it is inept.

    Documents marked “not for public release” aren’t classified. They’re what’s called controlled unclassified information (CUI). It’s anything from PII, law enforcement victim records to sensitive (but unclassified) technical manuals. There’s dozens of categories if anyone cares to look at them: https://www.archives.gov/cui/registry/category-marking-list

    They shouldn’t be sitting out there, but it’s also not a crime.

      The first result I got was labeled “classified: top secret - not for public release” so the label is more broadly applied than just CUI.

        That’s pretty obviously fake. This is what the real markings look like: https://www.archives.gov/files/isoo/training/marking-booklet-revision.pdf

          I mean, here’s the document. Unfortunately I am literally incapable of reading the dense material you provided, so you’ll have to be the judge. https://s3.amazonaws.com/tabroom-files/tourns/16458/postings/23658/Sunvite2021FinalsBriefing1.pdf

    So many of the results I see are incredibly obvious fakes.

    Second result for me was a document about Russian hackers and their demands that we enstate trump as president after he lost.
