So, you provide a private chat transcript to someone who is in the business of making things public... and then complain that by making that transcript public, they have identified who sent it to them.
Please tell me that's not accurate, because it's completely retarded.
- tptacek 16y agoI like this logic. "Anything you tell Julian Assange is fair game". Why, Manning could rightly have expected to be outed directly!
- tbrownaw 16y agoNo, it's the difference between "someone sent me this file" (should always be expected) and "so-and-so sent me this file" (should not be expected). If the file you sent is something that by its intended contents (as opposed to hidden metadata etc) could only have come from you, then WTF are you doing sending it in for publication if you don't want people to put two and two together?
