      4) Here's where it gets interesting: the NSA is not made of magic. Our rivals do the same thing to us -- and occasionally succeed.

      5) Knowing this, NSA's hackers (TAO) are told not to leave their hack tools ("binaries") on the server after an op. But people get lazy.

      6) What's new? NSA malware staging servers getting hacked by a rival is not new. A rival publicly demonstrating they have done so is.

      7) Why did they do it? No one knows, but I suspect this is more diplomacy than intelligence, related to the escalation around the DNC hack.

      8) Circumstantial evidence and conventional wisdom indicates Russian responsibility. Here's why that is significant:

      9) This leak is likely a warning that someone can prove US responsibility for any attacks that originated from this malware server.

      10) That could have significant foreign policy consequences. Particularly if any of those operations targeted US allies.

      12) Accordingly, this may be an effort to influence the calculus of decision-makers wondering how sharply to respond to the DNC hacks.

      13) TL;DR: This leak looks like a somebody sending a message that an escalation in the attribution game could get messy fast.

      Bonus: When I came forward, NSA would have migrated offensive operations to new servers as a precaution - it's cheap and easy. So? So...

          The undetected hacker squatting on this NSA server lost access in June 2013. Rare public data point on the positive results of the leak.

          I missed the part where @Snowden was believed to be dead. (I did see his Mark Twain post denying the rumors.)

          I missed the 256-bit number (that he deleted), but saw the odd "it's time" tweet (that he deleted) & scratched my head at the time.
