The Streisand Effect

Go to fullsize image
"........the US State Department, in their infinite wisdom, allows sensitive and potentially embarrassing diplomatic communications to be available on the SIPRenet (lol!) and classified at a low enough level so that millions of military and government personnel can have access to them. Then, lo and behold, one of those millions of people is a disgruntled Army PFC who decides to leak them. Rather than simply fire those who made the mistake of under-classifying and over-disseminating them, fix the underlying classification problem, and not comment on it any more than necessary, the government decides to make a whole lot of noise and, from the looks of it, involve their hands in an unprecedented internet censorship attempt.

So, whatever you do, don’t look at any of these links."
