Trying to portray a message of transparency after few years ago being exposed by Snowden for running a non constitutional spying program on all US (and non US) citizens. I thought the motive for positive publicity from the DoD since that happened would be pretty obvious.

You can look up the people involved using GitHub. A desire for positive publicity doesn't invalidate anything good an org does.
