Discord in the ranks: Lone Airman behind top-secret info leak on chat platform

There was only one US Air National Guardsman behind the leak of top-secret US military documents on Discord, but his chain of command bears some responsibility for letting it happen on their watch. The US Air Force reached that conclusion in an August report [PDF] made public yesterday into the actions of Airman 1st Class Jack Teixeira, who was arrested in April on suspicion that he had stolen and shared classified military documents on a private Discord server that later found their way to the wider internet – and, presumably, into the hands of foreign governments.
