She served her time and was released. Attacking her for being a felon is insulting and childish.

You can disagree with why she leaked all you like, but this honestly comes across as petty politics.

This attempt to repress her rights of speech and participation in open culture is, clearly, an attempt to compel people to not even question the reasons for why she leaked sensitive information.

Another slide down the slippery slope of American-style totalitarianism.
