Or more accurately, the Intercept either though ineptitude or malice burned their source.

I would call it criminal ineptitude.

They (the Intercept) are playing in a dangerous game, and they should be extra careful about such things. After all the drama about smashed hard drives, Greenwald's BF being detained in London, etc. etc. you'd think they'd know better.

I'm not in the security business, and even I knew about the dots (and circles in the $20 bills). It's been on HN several times: http://goo.gl/h1kqbu

So, shame on you, Intercept. Your callous disregard for your sources is now going to send one to prison for a looong time.
