Comment Will we really see more of ..well, anything? (Score 1) 328
With this kind of slipup and now a public demonstration that these propietary word formats are highly likely to be exploited, how will the bureaucrats respond? I don't see them releasing more sensitive documents to the public. The response is going to be a very protective one.
While it is possible that because of this blunder these secretive government operations will now procure additional resources to serve public requests, I think my University would first grant me $250 million to work on a VR-MUD chamber.
The result of this news? People who want to access private government documents are going to have to travel to their respective agency and stand in line for a photocopied, protectively marked documents. So much for our digital revolution's freedom to access information.
Now we wait for fifty-something plus years before additional, secretive documents will be released and all because someone thought it would be slick to post a few names.
