But it's not Illegal so who Cares?

I would think toeing the line like this and being ignored would encourage actual security breaches

Probably even more so if someone very high up in the executive branch did so as well

Toeing is correct. Something like not stepping over a line, whether literal or figurative, you're up at the edge, almost crossing the line, your toes are touching it. Toeing the line.

It's a game that reaches across adversarial borders. Allowing or encouraging leaks like this could bring Gaijin closer to threat of sanctions regardless of law. Any segmentation of the player base would lead to a reduction in user count and therefore a loss of profit.

So Gaijin cars, a lot.

Iirc they're a Russian company registered in the UK at the moment so they could probably have issues if they don't try to stop it.
