This is fine, and is a perfectly legitimate and well-founded view. It is not the only legitimate view. This is a complicated issue, and attempts to paint it as black-and-white, I think, do everyone involved in the discussion a disservice.

What agenda is served by spreading this information when know it shouldn't be in the public domain?

To some sensibilities, fairness. People/teams that have seen it are not going to un-see it. Attempts to contain leaks can certainly, in some situations, be less-ideal solutions than everyone knowing what was leaked. Whether it "should" be in the public domain or not is, to an extent, immaterial - it is in the public domain, and that's not something that can necessarily be undone.

If you buy into the logic that anything put on the internet is fair game, the world becomes a VERY scary place.

Appeal to consequences of a belief is a fallacy.
