No she didn't. Please stop repeating this claim.

She signed up for an email subscription from her personal gmail, on her work computer.

That would certainly have been enough to raise her superiors' hackles when discovered, but the result would have been her getting fired, not indicted.

The bottom line is having a personal subscription to the Intercept was not ever going to be enough to build a case against her. You repeating that claim is victim blaming, and more importantly, wrong.

I think that really depends on whether you perceive the leaker as a perpetrator or a victim. Valid arguments can be made for either side.
