Why won't anyone say what the harm, was? Is that cause there was no harm?
Unfortunately, it doesn't seem matter if harm was done or not. And any harm that was done can't always be measured. I imagine is more about the fact that documents were made public when there were supposed to be only for the dealers, rather than what those documents contained.

But when you think about it, most rules and laws are like this. Consider the following. Someone runs a stop sign in on some country road at 2:00 am when there are clearly no cars coming for a couple of miles. A cop parked at the side of the road near the intersection sees the person do this so he pulls him over. Can the guy argue that he didn't break the law because no harm was done? No because the law states that you stop at stop signs.
