      Mass flooding of traditional media with hack tidbits—most of which reported poorly, without context—just kicks up dust; drowns politics.

      Mass hacks—no curation, full of private info & juicy but irrelevant tidbits—are the opposite of what you need for investigative journalism.

      Instead, we have a press corps unable to take their eyes off the bright candy that fell from the piñata plus a lot of social media noise.

      It's no longer age of information scarcity. Censorship works by info glut, distraction, confusion and stealing political focus & attention.

      Wikileaks tweeted out (named) staffer's suicide attempt from hack & CNN discussed it on-air. How are people shrugging this level of damage?

      This is a version of why women don't came forward. If you want to change that, you need to change the whole ecology of treatment afterwards.

      Targeted hacking of political campaigns isn't FOIA. As soon as an dissident group amounts to anything, it will be destroyed via this method.

      There's a chance to not normalize this—by treating it like the danger to the ecology of news & politics it is while it affects the powerful.

      Instead, few seem to be able to take their eyes of the candy falling from the piñata, to see the buzzsaw coming this way. ::sigh::

      That's quite the metaphor there.
