You can only make an amateur assessment because you can actually see the document. If this had not been released, you only have the word of the gov/three-letter-agency/etc that it really really does need to be secret. Since we've seen members of this group repeatedly caught lying (even to their overseers) how much can we trust the system? This isn't an argument for leaks but I'm trying to point out that the system doesn't work as advertised.
