And if they are digital, how has there not been any sort of hack? ‘Anonymous’ or foreign actors would surely love to have a chance to air the dirty laundry, no?

Worse, Snowden did leak an absurd amount of gov details and documents and info and it did nothing to stop what’s happening. People barely acknowledged it.
Maybe someone would martyr themselves. But doing it for nothing? Not appealing.
Dude, it changed a ton. Facebook was http only back then. Huuuuuge roll-out of encryption followed the Snowdon leaks.
It lead to massive increases in secured public infrastructure.
It did actually have some effect, though. The GDPR and countries reducing their dependence on the USA’s intelligence services are part of it.
I’m also reminded of the Panama Papers, which did make some bankers in Iceland step down.
And yet governments are trying to buy palantir access. There should be more opposition.
Exactly. Palantir is American terrorism and infiltration.
Uh… No the bankers got all pardoned and all agencies pardoned nothing was changed
