If you leak sensitive military documents just because you can't stand losing an online argument, your voting rights and driving licence should be revoked. You are simply too stupid to exist in normal society.
Treating people as sub-human - no longer with the same basic human rights, like the right to vote, as others - just for committing a crime, is an extremely dangerous fascist road to go down.
Criminals exist, they are people, and they have as much right to take part in the democratic process as anybody else. Equality is the cornerstone of democracy.
I agree with you. Did you know that criminal disenfranchisement is not an invention of the USA? We turned it into an artform, to be sure, but it has a long history and is still a thing in many other countries (old article, couldn't find anything more recent easily).

I mean, criminals caught and put into jail by definition have less rights than someone free to walk anywhere.. though your actual point is taken.
[...] basic human rights, like the right to vote [...]
Equality is the cornerstone of democracy.
Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Article 21.3:
The will of the people shall be the basis of the authority of government; this will shall be expressed in periodic and genuine elections which shall be by universal and equal suffrage and shall be held by secret vote or by equivalent free voting procedures.
Now explain "first past the post", gerrymandering, or the D'Hondt method.
You're right. Instead, we should form suicide squads with them and send them to Ukraine to fight imperialism
It's a criminal offence. In a US wystem, that means no voting, driving of much of anyrhing else for around two decades.
No no you don't understand
They leak online documents because its usually Gaijin's braindead mods rambling about superior russian technology that gets implemented as invincible in game lol.
Also pretty much all these leaks are considered sensitive info, not top secret. It's not common on the internet, but really easy for many people in the military to access because its usually basic things like a flight manual.
Not to mention its also mostly retired or previous generation tech, so this material is probably coming from off service members anyway.
Hell even the China MBT "leak" wasn't illegal because it was already declassified.
It's not my fault that people are wrong on the internet
Voting rights should only be impacted in cases of electoral fraud. If you are part of a widespread campaign to illegally impact the vote then and only then should you lose voting rights
What was it this time
Engine and sensor specs for the F-117
When I was in the Navy, during the mid 90's, I watched these things take off and do training tests or whatever they did. We watched them for hours. It occurred to me, watching them in perfect daylight and with a understanding of what I was watching, that if I didn't know what that was it could have easily been a UFO. And ever since then when someone tells me that they might have seen a UFO I tell them about watching that airplane and how UFO it looked taking off and doing maneuvers. Its shape and speed make it such a bizarre thing to see.
pdf link or fake
This is teaching and maintaining standards of NCD leadership, rightchyah
wasn't that retired from combat in 2008? I get that the technology might still be classified, but by modern stealth, it's ancient
It was ITAR restricted and not sensitive. Every time I see this I just shake my head..
Yeah, that's what I thought. It's been 8+ years since I had to do anything ITAR so I couldn't remember if it also applied to information. From what I remember it explicitly controls products that are purpose built or components of defense systems (and by that I mean 'Arms').
While I'm sure Warthunder thought the best idea was to say "fuck that, we aren't touching this live wire with a 20 foot long insulated fiber glass pole" and the manual itself is export controlled (as it aids in use of the F-117 system) there isn't a new national security threat because of it being shared publicly. Part of the reason ITAR exists, if you make it difficult or impossible to obtain all the parts of a system, that system is going to have a hard time working correctly.
Does anyone happen to have the specific persons handbook on how to operate a m1 Abrams?
WHY ARE THEYRE SIX PEDALS!
Manuver
If there are only four directions
Classified information or $10 manual again?
Other people have said it's a ten dollar manual but I never checked the sources 🤷
the user allegedly posted pages from a flight manual, which included information such as the location of the plane’s sensors, its engine specifications, and even its firing angles.
Probably nothing new to the people who would target an F-117 but still
Has this really happened?
Multiple times. It's the dumbest shit, too.
So many times over the years. The devs had made multiple public statements that they will not use the information or implement it in game, so as not to encourage it, yet people keep doing it
Such a strange time to be alive
