So should I wait to be notified via certified mail, or just immediately self-report to the closest DHS agency to find out if I'm on the latest official list of potential hits?...sarcasm//

“what possibly could go wrong?”

Now they have a list of all employees with a clearance and the name of the agency they work for. So.... they know the names, addresses, family member’s names & addresses of everyone that works at the CIA, NSA, SOCOM, etc. including undercover agents. They have a CIA employee listing! They also know all of their friends and all of their darkest secrets. Excellent blackmail or extortion material. It is a foreign intelligence officer’s dream!
