I mean it's the CIA, and I can guarantee they run tracking software like all websites do these days. I would rather not visit them directly and give them my data. I'm not as hardline on privacy as some here, but if we link to youtube and twitter frontends instead of those websites directly, it's never really made sense to me that this doesn't extend to the CIA website itself lol. But I'm not criticizing you or anything, just thinking we should reupload these files somewhere (they have been, they're just not always super accessible) instead.

We're probably going to rehost these docs on prolewiki so that we don't have to rely on the cia website any more lol

Honestly, I'm just expecting people to be taking anti-tracking measures already if that's important to them. I linked to the actual CIA website really just because that verifies it as the actual document — if the document were instead hosted on a different website, especially on a spooky scary "tankie" website, then the people who actually need to read it would immediately dismiss it as fake.
