Realistically, it's doubtful anybody died directly because of that particular leak.

Probably the shutting down of the phone reading methods could eventually compromise operations. It probably cost them money and a great deal of time which could totally have an impact on somebody's life. But that's how espionage works.

I kind of get that you have to keep your secrets secret. And there need to be repercussions for leaking secrets. Especially trade secrets like this. If not for the CP stuff I would think 5 or 10 years would have been a more reasonable number.

But with the hole unapologetic CP thing. I'm not even sure 40 is enough.
