I applaud the action she took. I think she knowingly took a risk and is going to pay for it. I hope the next president commutes her sentence. I'd like to see rules and laws in place to make it harder to hide shit like that from the public.That's a tough call.
In this case it's more like whistle blower status. The government was clearly attempting to hold that evidence of of the public eye on an effort to protect itself.
And that is also a tough call to make.
To categorize her leak as whistle blowing isn't a bad idea. An independent review board might help protect real secrets. I just don't think the decision should be hers and hers alone.
That said, secrets aren't kept that way for long anymore. And that's a good thing.
