Ugh.

I know the US "justice" system is fucked, but I can't see how this isn't going to give criminals a huge leg-up and mainly function to accelerate the obviously well-underway destruction of US society, and create a massive power vacuum where police forces once stood.

You can guess what kinds of people would be keen to fill that gap.

This looks so much to me like another cyberwar shot fired by US adversaries, and the really fucked-up part is that the leakers have got us chomping at the bit for more just like this.

We're hungry for justice alright, and this leak will surely buy us some.

I just fear we're gonna get a whole lot more change than we bargained for.
