It's funny that you seem to think wikileaks dumps their leaks
   indiscriminately, when they have been criticized for holding too much
   back from the public.
   It's also funny that you think someone out there has some sort of
   definition of what "properly vetted" means. Last time I checked, the
   opinions on that topic span the spectrum.
   Also, what the fuck are "proper mainstream journalists" because last I
   checked that definition only applied to obsolete dinosaurs working in
   "old media".

     Among the many things I have grown to detest about the Snowden Leaks
     spectacle is that for every heavily redacted page thats been
     revealed
     a meagre ~300 pages in five months according to Cryptome.org we
     rubes seem to get at least twenty, sometimes very stern, lessons in
     proper whistleblowing from the the Leaker, the Leak Keepers, the
     Leak
     Keeper inner circle, and soldiers in the sycophant army that
     doltishly
     parrot and hype everything these people say. The lesson is as
     follows:
     1. Dont ever just dump your leaks on the internet.
     2. Make sure your leaks are properly vetted and mediated by proper
     mainstream journalists.
     This lesson is often, perhaps even usually, stated as, or with, some
     variation of the following:
     Dont be like Chelsea Manning and Wikileaks, that is, indiscriminate,
     reckless and dangerous to both national security and human life...
