Perhaps I should have said "protection of state secrets out of context".
My main concern isn't that these secrets are getting exposed, its that they are getting exposed in a way that is easily editorialized by whoever is distributing them. Ordinarily US citizens wouldn't have access to our country's diplomatic cables (even though other countries might) - now we do have them, yet we have absolutely no way of verifying that we've gotten the unadulterated whole of them. That is what concerns me.
