Yep. Even the spooky Stratfor[1] would have more information than this. This is nothing like what Snowden or literally hundreds of thousands of people who hold TS/SCI have access to (identities of NCOs or other espionage operatives, access to recruiting databases for foreign nationals who went abroad to the US for graduate studies and are being assessed as potential intelligence assets by their professors, etc). A pissed off 4channer with good Google-fu could get more information than this.

[1] Which I'm sure intelligence agencies are thankful for, because all the tin-foil hatters are misplacing their resources in designing conspiracy theories about an incompetent "private intelligence organization" which amounts to a bunch of people who could easily be outsmarted by a 4chan-er with good Google-fu. You know all those stories you heard about the KGB being incompetent, or now hear about how the Party is in modern China w/r/t information control? Yeah.. the FIVEEYES are about on par when it comes to incompetence.
