How it was found

Description: i recently found a bunch of FOUO documents, ranging from multiple websites, owned by the U.S government. Most do not seem to hold much Sensitive information (just election stuff along with Cyber threats and new malware).

But one of the files, had a persons passport on it, including the FIRST 4 pages.

i have sent a link to this specific Document, seeing as the others stemmed from multiple websites and did not seem at all sensitive.

Also, a website known as the Distributed Denial of Secrets is leaking "Secret" u.s documents, regarding stolen Military vehicle number pates. I believe this website may be in possession of other Secret u.s documentation. (But am unsure whether third party sites are in scope: if not, i would be happy to help te U.S hunt down these files on that site, if you have any other means of contact.)
