According to a partially declassified report from the Defense Intelligence Agency, the scope of the damage caused by Edward Snowden’s leaks is “staggering.” The declassified parts of the 39-page report, which was prepared in December, don’t offer any specifics as to how this conclusion was reached. The report focused solely on non-National Security Agency defense materials. It also didn’t mention Snowden by name in its title, as the report was called “DoD Information Review Task Force-2: Initial Assessment, Impacts Resulting from the Compromise of Classified Material by a Former NSA Contractor.”
