A British soldier disobeyed a direct order to remove the SIM card from his cellphone before being deployed to a part of Estonia, approximately 90 miles west of the Russian border.
As a result of his refusal to engage in this element of operational security (opsec), the soldier, had his phone hacked, and nude photos of himself were stolen and used as blackmail against him.



I think there’s the extra part of him also doing this directly against orders, which had much more serious consequences.
But yeah, I feel pretty similar. Having good friends/family means this is mildly embarassing, not an actual blackmail worthy event.
