Reminds me of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_Taurus_leak

„Among the topics the officials discussed in their conversation, conducted using standard commercial Cisco Webex video conferencing software, were the presence of UK and US military personnel in Ukraine and the potential use of Taurus missiles to blow up the Crimean Bridge.“




A thing using authorized channels that was spied on by a different state has practically nothing in common with this.

(Yes, it probably shouldn't have been an authorized channel, but it was.)


Though the channel wasn’t cleared for the level of information that was discussed.

WebEx was cleared up to the equivalent of Restricted. The conversation likely reached the level of Secret or Top Secret.

Two of the generals were disciplined. (4-figure fine)
