US Gov't Strategy To Prevent Leaks Is Leaked
Found on Techdirt on Tuesday, 04 January 2011
There's something rather ironic that the US government's document on how to get various US government agencies to prevent future leaks (a la Wikileaks) was quickly leaked to the press. But, it's not really that surprising, is it?
Of course, the main thrust of the document isn't to question whether or not so much secrecy is really necessary, but to send out a memo to various government agencies suggesting they use psychiatrists and sociologists to sniff out workers who might be disgruntled.
A transparent government was promised, and now it's becoming reality. Even against its will.
