What are you talking about? Binney and Drake managed to whistleblow on just what was necessary without dumping our whole, foreign operations. Many other whistleblowers have also been selective. Snowden said he read and organized tge documents. So, releasing just the bad, domestic stuff plus key examples of foreign issues like Belgian telecom would be easy given it's a tiny fraction of what he already did.

This isn't speculative: it's been done by other whistleblowers and he had time/resources to do it himself. He didn't. That's an evil or crime he has to own up to that's not whistleblowing.
