I think some people get a high/rush/satisfaction [0] from revealing privileged information. Others get the same feeling from guarding privileged information and being one of the trusted few to know.
[0] I'm sure there's a nice, concise word that fits what I'm unable to articulate here.
- uxp 11y agoIsn't that the same feeling that comes when one believes what is popularly construed as a conspiracy theory? I mean, you have this bit of information that the entire world doesn't know (or doesn't care or believes differently), and you _know_ that it's correct. Granted, one like this story is factual information where as conspiracy theories are theoretical (obviously), but the sense of responsibility of knowing that information makes people want to share it as wide and as far as they can muster so they can be the leader or originator of a movement changing the status quo.
