Ex-democrat Staffer Pleads Guilty to ‘Doxxing’ Republican Senators
By Zachary Stieber

A 27-year-old man who worked for multiple Democrat congresswomen has pleaded guilty to charges of stealing information and illegally posting restricted info of U.S. senators online.

Jackson Cosko pleaded guilty to two counts of making public restricted personal information; one count of computer fraud; one count of witness tampering; and one count of obstruction of justice.

Cosko posted the personal information of Republican senators during the heated Brett Kavanaugh nomination hearings, including their home addresses and cellphone numbers, through an anonymous IP address in the House of Representatives.

What Cosko did is known as “doxxing,” described by prosecutors as “the act of gathering, by licit and illicit means, and posting on the Internet personal identifying information and other sensitive information about an individual.”

But wait, there's more!  Ex-Democratic staffer logged keystrokes on hacked Senate computers during heists  https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2019/apr/6/jackson-cosko-ex-democratic-staffer-logged-keystro/

What is it with the Democrats and the carelessness with their data?  Leaked emails, hacked servers, the DWS / Awan scandal, Hillary's rogue server, and now this?
