That's true, ultimately the responsibility for classified information falls at the feet of the folks who are supposed to be protecting it and they are really 100% at fault for the leak. You could charge somebody for breaking and entering, hacking, theft, espionage or whatever but those in charge of keeping the info secret needed to be more vigilant.
Although I do have to wonder if you can prosecute somebody for knowingly publishing classified information. It doesn't seem right that if I came across classified documents about nuclear launch codes I wouldn't be held to some responsibility if I posted them on the Internet.
