‘Colour printers spy on you’: Barely visible yellow dots lead to arrest of Reality Winner, alleged NSA leaker


Winner, 25, was charged Monday with gathering, transmitting or losing defence information, as The Washington Post reported. The Intercept called the classified document the “most detailed U.S. government account of Russian interference in the election that has yet come to light,” saying it indicated that Russian hacking may have gone deeper than previously known. One of them was Winner, who worked for Pluribus International at a facility in Georgia, the affidavit says. “Because the NSA logs all printing jobs on its printers, it can use this to match up precisely who printed the document,” Graham wrote Monday. “Just a reminder, colour printers spy on you,” tweeted data analyst Tim Bennett.
