      Not everything behind the curtain is worth exposing. And that's locker-room talk I believe in.

      I know @ggreenwald has written a lot on impact of gov't surveillance on dissent; this is not same but similarities.

      I think these are all interesting points- too interesting for Twitter actually- but nobody is defending the hack itself

      I agree hard for Twitter; but we need more than "this tidbit was newsworthy" to deal with this very real threat.

      This is why it ties into "how significant was the revelation" question. Given the harm, I'd argue need higher bar.

      But there are 2 steps: 1) were the hackers/WL justified?: 2) once they hack/publish, what should journalists do?

      But journalists are debating only 2—and email by email. That's what I'm arguing against. Consider the ecology, too.

      Well actually, Chris & I were discussing 1). But jornos can't control hackers/WL, only their own conduct.

      I disagree. Example: putting school shooters manifestos on loop encourages more. ISIS films beheadings to go viral.

      These hacks are done very specifically to get traditional newspapers to spend their precious attention on it.

      We're not in an era of info scarcity where we try to break censorship by publishing. Threat is opposite: info glut.

          Meanwhile, Intercept, New York Times, Politico etc. and all journalists are crawling this for bits, reporting.

          Yes, this goes against all journalistic instinct but what to encourage/discourage give/withhold attention has to+
