I still can't believe people would risk their careers leaking this stuff.

Now when somebody screws up by releasing information, they are demoted a pay rank for 6 months and after that they have to hope for a promotion back to their previous pay scale.
So no more losing your job immediatley, just living with the shame of knowing you got caught, and being on very thin ice.
I second JCs post. But also question the bolded line above. I *know* that is not accurate in all cases. Might be for some carriers/some leaks but not all.
