Got to remember that these same armed forces folks do talk to family/friends back home. The cat is out of the bag.
Did it ever occur to you to read the article (and note the deceptive headline), or any of the replies by the few people on this thread that actually know what they are talking about?
There’s been no ban on reading articles about Obama scandals by the military. The issue is the Washington Post and Guardian have posted Top Secret material. It’s not automatically unclassified because it’s been leaked to the media. The rules say that any leakage of classified onto an unclassified military computer is a huge deal, basically the computer needs to be completely erased, there’s huge amounts of paperwork, etc.
The exact same notice went out about Bradley Manning and that you couldn’t go to Wikileaks on an unclassified DoD or DoD contractor computer.
