Insane. The amount of power sysadmins have can reach the scale of full information from any organization they work for. What permits guarantee of control is a consequence mechanism, a law regime, if there is no consequence, either firing or keeping like it is will not avoid people to cross that line of non-ethical behaviour, Russia has not understood that they giving shelter to Mr. Snowden has opened a door for a karma effect soon by people doing the same against Russia, and sheltering in US, thats definitely not the way to address this topics. Information is virtually impossible to be controlled, its human factor that can change, and this topic should always be addressed from the human perspective and not the process perspective, you need to manage your people, there is no 100% secure information system in the world. Because there is not also 100% ethical or non-ethical information, a country can indeed commit non-ethical actions by their intelligence to protect their people. The rights of people are after the rights of the state, no one has ever understood that, not even the American people who wrote the first amendemnt and which agree that having a gun is the right to defend themselves from their government, what they dont realize is that that is the right to defend from the Regime not from the country, and a intelligence system defends the people by first, I repeat, first, I repeat, first, defending the integrity of its country. By default a country dont trust anyone, full stop. The several human mechanisms of check-points for everyone working with direct access to information, has centuries of refining, and adjustment, and its the best it can be done, if someone breaks this trust must face consequence. The solution to those who do not agree or are not able to see this pragmatic perspective, but realistic, is to build a space ship with capacity to reach out of Planet Earth and either stay in orbit living from sun energy and a self recycle food production from own faeces, or create a army and implement a world dictatorship, or implement a world anarchy where no trust and security must be guarantee by any country or similar organization.
