QuoteMilitary Bans Disks, Threatens Courts-Martial to Stop New Leaks (http://www.wired.com/dangerroom/2010/12/military-bans-disks-threatens-courts-martials-to-stop-new-leaks)
It's too late to stop WikiLeaks from publishing thousands more classified documents, nabbed from the Pentagon's secret network. But the U.S. military is telling its troops to stop using CDs, DVDs, thumb drives and every other form of removable media — or risk a court martial.
Maj. Gen. Richard Webber, commander of Air Force Network Operations, issued the Dec. 3 "Cyber Control Order" — obtained by Danger Room — which directs airmen to "immediately cease use of removable media on all systems, servers, and stand alone machines residing on SIPRNET," the Defense Department's secret network. Similar directives have gone out to the military's other branches.
"Unauthorized data transfers routinely occur on classified networks using removable media and are a method the insider threat uses to exploit classified information. To mitigate the activity, all Air Force organizations must immediately suspend all SIPRNET data transfer activities on removable media," the order adds.
so the order which is meant to stop leaks has just been leaked?

Does this mean they are stopping all backups as well? Isn't *that* considered removable media as well?

*snigger* That's about it, isn't it? I imagine I'd be flamingly pissed off at whoever embarrassed me that badly too. But I'd have no one to blame but myself.
