Former intel analyst charged with disclosing classified information to a reporter, the indictment illustrates challenges/risks with journalist/source comms. justice.gov/usao-edva/pres…
P5 outlines comms: analyst researched reporter, attended reporter's book event, searched for classified info re: reporter's beat, texted friends about the event + meeting reporter, reporter emailed analyst article about Snowden, analyst and reporter exchanged texts, emails, etc.
Indictment suggests the analyst and the reporter communicated via emails, texts and in-person meetings prior to using encrypted comms. Book event in April 2013, reporter suggested Jabber in September. Could be they used encrypted comms sooner without this being highlighted here.
The indictment also cites an older version of The Intercept's "How to Leak" page.
