This morning, WikiLeaks posted the first of what the organization's spokesperson says is a multi-part series of documents and files from the Central Intelligence Agency. "The first full part of the series, 'Year Zero', comprises 8,761 documents and files from an isolated, high-security network situated inside the CIA's Center for Cyber Intelligence in Langley, Virgina [sic]," WikiLeaks' spokesperson said in a press release.

When reached for comment, a CIA spokesperson told Ars Technica, "We do not comment on the authenticity or content of purported intelligence documents."

They have learned not much from the Snowden and Manning incidents. It will be very interesting to see what journalists and scientists will gather from Vault 7.
