What makes you so sure G7 countries are 100% honest?

  Fire the whataboutism canons!

  Institutions in democratic countries are much more independent of political pressure. It might still happen, but there's a high chance that it will come to light sooner rather than later. Whistle-blowers don't have to fear the same repercussions as in autocratic states.

    > Whistle-blowers don't have to fear the same repercussions as in autocratic states. Its amazing that you parot that nonsence while Assange rots in prison and Snowden is hiding for a full decade. Those that fire "whataboutism cannon" arguments etc. are equally bad. Nobody is honest (or rational) here, lets not pretend otherwise, even little kids understand better. It is what it is, its human nature I guess. I don't have a solution, except that you have to accept and adapt to that sort of game, nothing more or less, especially not thinking you have some sort of moral higher ground.

      Neither Assange nor Snowden were leaking political manipulations in the statistical office. Please don't derail the conversation.

        Ah, now it makes sense, I was so blind.
