A former Air National Guard member will serve prison time because of his activities in a gaming-focused chat app.
Jack Teixeira,oral sex videos for women who previously served in the Massachusetts Air National Guard, was sentenced to 15 years in prison for pilfering classified documents from the Department of Defense and sharing them to a Discord server, per NBC News.
The sentence was slightly less than the roughly 17 years the U.S. attorney's office wanted, but the judge noted that Teixeira had specifically been trained in the proper handling of secret documents, so he still got 15 years.

The length of the sentence also has to do with Teixeira pleading guilty to six charges of willfully disseminating national defense information under the Espionage Act. The leaks, which were shared on Discord over the course of about a year between 2022 and 2023, allegedly included information about providing aid to Ukraine, among other things.
No matter how wild and weird your friend group's Discord server is, it probably will never live up to that.
