Where is the list? Is it public or just being dripped to select journalists?
- mike_d 5y agoA group of ~30 media organizations has access to it.
- throwaway4good 5y agoIt reminds me of the difference between Snowden and Assange. Snowden gave his material to a select group of journalists who carefully wrote articles and curated the information to be released whereas Assange would just publish the raw material.
- mike_d 5y agoSnowden was also pretty careless in how he handled the stolen data. Both Russia and China have obtained and decrypted the files, putting American and allied spies and agents at personal risk. It is unclear if Snowden enabled this, or simply underestimated how big of an espionage target he and the journalists would become.
- rognjen 5y agoIt's not being dripped to journalists. They got the entire list and are releasing more prominent names in batches.
