Some news organizations, including The Intercept, have devoted
substantial resources to reporting on the newsworthy aspects of the
archive of emails of Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta that was
published last week by WikiLeaks. Numerous documents from that archive
have shed considerable light on the thought processes and previously
secret behavior of top Clinton campaign aides and often the candidate
herself. While the significance of particular stories has been
debated, there is no denying that many of those disclosures offer a
valuable glimpse into campaign operatives who currently exercise great
political power and who, as of January of next year, are likely to be
among the most powerful officials on the planet.

Despite her agreement with those propositions, the author and activist
Naomi Klein believes there are serious threats to personal privacy and
other critical political values posed by hacks of this sort,
particularly when accompanied by the indiscriminate publication of
someone’s personal emails.
