They are talking about the whistleblowers, not about others affected by the leak. So it is not the same talking point at all.

- rahrahrah 10y agoOh... In that case I misunderstood the text. Google translate isn't great. Could you expand on why the documents could reveal the whistleblowers?
- larma 10y agoThe document package contained a document not available to the NSA commission but to some foreign affairs commission. Only very few people have access to documents of both commissions. The more interesting part is: this leak was completely useless. Although the documents are not for the public, they're also not rated as a secret. This means that every politician with access is allowed to tell the press about it, only publishing is not allowed. As we have a useful opposition in Germany there was nothing new in the documents...
- rahrahrah 10y agoYeah... it's just a matter of time until something like this will have a whistleblower shoot himself in the foot :-/
- walid 10y agoThis makes me think that the claims to pursue informants/leakers is false. It also makes me believe that the purpose of the leak was to create an alibi to conduct a procedure that looks like a prosecution to intimidate potential leakers.
