the documents...include information on a range of topics, from U.S. efforts to spy on South Korea...
“The mood is anger,” said one DoD official, who like others quoted for this story was granted anonymity to discuss internal reactions to the leak. “It’s a massive betrayal.”
“I’m sick to my stomach,” said a second DoD official.
I absolutely get it. It's outrageous to spy on an ally, I would be angry too. Oh wait, you mean that someone exposed you. Well, cry me a river.
One of the leaked classified US documents, the authenticity of which has not yet been verified, showed details of private conversations between two top South Korean officials about the US push for Seoul to supply lethal weapons to Ukraine.
^ it's funny because everyone does this, listening in on everyone else to understand what is going on behind the scenes. It's not on the same level as stealing technology or going after other kinds of national secrets.
When I worked for the government it was 100% assumed that everyone is spying on everyone. There is a lot of false outrage, kabuki theater, and probably some legitimate worry that some actual sigint capabilities or techniques have leaked (some of the docs I saw referenced had extremely high "SCI" classifications).
One example of spying that was commonly given was both Russia AND the United States installing bugs in each other's embassies--and how it was almost a game between spy agencies to try to one-up the other sides--and French intelligence bugging the Air France business class seats to spy on corporate chatter in order to help out French companies.

Aren't all leaks heroic? That's what the news and leftists said when it was Trump trying to make a difference.
If journalism wasn't dead, real leaks would always be a good thing to them. As propagandists for The Party, THEIR shit getting leaked is worse than Pearl Harbor.
"Worse than Ed Snowden"
Will histrionics never cease? Snowden's releases proved they were evil, this only proves they're unsuccessful.
That IS worse for them though lol. If you were a government would you rather be feared or laughed at????
I'd rather be trusted and productive.
Well they can't be that. They've proven time and time again they are incapable of sticking to the truth or being even remotely responsible.
Embarrassing them is the greatest sin.
