Heck one rogue sys admin and fringe blogger are single handily re-defining domestic and international politics. Gosh, I hope not. As much as I admire Edward Snowden, I sincerely hope the new definition of domestic and international politics isn't "Live in fear of the whistleblower." It's a terribly sad day when doing the right thing by the public is left to one lowly sysadmin in the entire intelligence community. I'd like to think that someday we can get back to asking for less of the totally naked transparency we're now demanding of the intelligence community, because we can trust them to do their job without abusing their power. Others have pontificated on how the NSA can restore that trust. I don't know how, I just hope that someday they DO.
