Considering a point of view it is fair to say that Mr. Ellsberg attacked democracy itself by disclosing the private study. From Ellsberg's view he took it upon himself to inform the public about a crucial issue namely, that the study showed, in his opinion, that the American government had been lying for years about the progress of the war The Pentagon Papers leak may have compromised national security, but only by showing the rest of the world that the US was incapable of keeping its secrets.

Extent to which government should be allowed to have secrecy:

Governmental secrecy has a peculiar quality that results from the lack of a known mechanism for limiting its exercise to specific areas on which reasonable people can agree.

The cost of secrecy extends beyond the spread of mistrust that the government is abusing the public's confidence. It also serves as a means of halting the national discourse in which citizens prepare themselves for important decisions that may require significant sacrifice. The Pentagon Papers serve as the best example of this.
