Another Snowden News Story. Another Lesson in Proper Whistleblowing.
Nice to see folks discussing this blog post: http://ohtarzie.wordpress.com/2013/10/25/another-snowden-news-story-another-... Would be grateful, though, if they read it, instead of decontextualizing pieces of it -- specifically my paraphrasing of the Good Whistleblower/Bad Whistleblower meme -- and then ranting as if my paraphrase was an endorsement. It is a great mystery to me why Jacob did this -- surely it was honest mistake! -- but I would be most appreciative if it ended with him. Thanks.

an opportunity to gleefully to correct my ignorance, alas, trigger happy Jake fumbled it. Jake and i don't get along. i call him out on his bullshit opinions and lack of expertise in various technologies/languages when he speaks out of ignorance, and i care nothing for his attention seeking and ego. it's interesting to see the myriad perspectives of those who interact with him. some grant him way too much credit and reverence, others have been on the receiving end of his "colorful personality" and keep a darker opinion. in any case, whenever i feel bad about his posturing i just pull up my favorite cell vid of him at DEF CON 19, "You can't record me. Don't you know who I am?? I'm Jacob Fucking Applebaum!" best regards, coderman (who is a jerk for speaking ill of Jacob, i do admit!)
