Information about the missile defense system lost with porn

U.S. government officials with a light press have become known around the world as people who have lost a record number of laptops with valuable information, sometimes even containing state secrets.

The Japanese, apparently deciding not to remain in debt, followed in the footsteps of historical rivals: a certain naval foreman became interested in downloading pornography to his computer, which also contained (and in unencrypted form) data on the Aegis anti-ballistic missile defense system, which was accepted for use in several countries.

The foreman decided to share his pornographic findings with colleagues and threw them along with the video files and information about Aegis, completely unaware of this. Of course, all this came to light very quickly, but during the investigation the accused swore and swore that they did not even suspect that there were some confidential data among the videos with naked beauties.
