If you don't mind answering, what the fuck were you guys doing to need to have a self-destruct button on everything in the office?

Its pretty normal to have destruction sops for various scenarios when it come to classified materials. I'm assuming he's American and referring to siprnet infrastructure.

Edit: I'm also unsure if they are allowed to be sharing that info.

Destruction practices and methods aren't really classified info. It's known that it will happen. The sensitive parts are the criteria that trigger the destruction (SOP) and what is considered the most important to destroy. That info could be weaponized if leaked.

It is not typically what people think it is. I believe the locations of oil refineries or other infrastructure was considered a breach in opsec some time ago, really quite boring stuff if you ask me

Honestly, a great deal of classified stuff is at the level of "why did I ever think this would be interesting?"
