Maybe not competent security locks or doors. Come on now.. Yeah it's easy to say "Student Debt Bad" but remember, there's actual human beings on the other side of the transaction as well.

You can argue all you want about legal vs illegal but its hard to say the government was acting solely in bad faith when they were generally acting as people said they would and basically knew they would once the Patriot Act etc was passed.

They are complicit in helping this surveillance state we live in operate, any one of them could take actions against it like Snowden did, but they don't. If you're actively complicit with evil actions, it doesn't matter if you were "just following orders", you are helping this type of evil prevail and you are partially responsible. Every person has the power to change the world around them and make a difference in it, the fact they don't use theirs to help oppose this surveillance state especially when they're in a much better position to than most people, is all on them.

    • The 2000s were a pretty weird time for cybersecurity. It was becoming increasingly better supported and understood, but you were still coming out of a relative degree of innocence and naivete due to how recent it all was. Laws had yet to fully catch up, security practices were very much still being figured out, and generally it was just a weaker time. It's also a constant game of attack and defense, what it looks like today vs 2008 are wildly different because of this. A lot of it involved making lower level agencies (Possibly with their own rules and policies, often weaker or poorly implemented) come in line with mandatory standards and practices. It's not infallible, but it does a lot.

Posturing is resource relied upon heavily for displaying power. So when weakness and vulnerability is revealed in an institution that relies on its image of power. It causes said institution to have extreme condemning response as a display to refortify its image of powerfulness.
