All he has to worry about now is being assassinated.

ahh the issue of breaking omerta. Survival vs. idealism. I would argue that he should have given information in the more classic forms of gossip and allowed those who would hear to adjust as need be. The funny thing about all this is the information doesn't bother those its not really meant for (the general mind their own business public) but more for those looking to dissent aggressively. All I keep coming to the conclusion with this is the point of aggression and discussion. Discussion should always be used before and after aggression. It would make the programs easier to deal with if the was more of it.

Data mining (ADVISE)

The Associated Press reported on September 5, 2007,[51] that DHS had scrapped an anti-terrorism data mining tool called ADVISE (Analysis, Dissemination, Visualization, Insight and Semantic Enhancement) after the agency's Privacy Office[52] and Office of Inspector General (OIG)[53][54] found that pilot testing of the system had been performed using data on real people without having done a Privacy Impact Assessment, a required privacy safeguard for the various uses of real personally identifiable information required by section 208 of the e-Government Act of 2002. The OIG report noted that ADVISE was poorly planned, time-consuming for analysts to use, and lacked adequate justifications. The system, in development at Lawrence Livermore and Pacific Northwest National Laboratory since 2003, had cost the agency $42 million to date. Controversy over the program preceded the Privacy Office and OIG reports; in March 2007, the Government Accountability Office stated that "the ADVISE tool could misidentify or erroneously associate an individual with undesirable activity such as fraud, crime or terrorism."[

The amount of his personal freedom he has given up so we can know is heroic.
