The gamer nexus guy? He got a 1-on-entire-team-of-PR-and-customer-service-people interview at a deep-discount computer parts company in their own office to discuss known implications of decisions they deliberately made. THAT's your benchmark?
Nothing about that situation has bearing on whether people first think of safely concealed sources or being publicly dragged through the mud like Chelsea Manning and Edward Snowden before sharing things far more important than entitled rants about customer service for entertainment-related products. My lord.
