I can't help but feel a Zen-like sense of balance and bliss over this. An NSA contractor violated her employment agreement and the law in providing Top Secret info to The Intercept, who then published it.

The Intercept got a story published and is enjoying great attention (and ad revenue), and the guilty party was caught. Everyone can be happy.

I am curious as to why he was incarcerated.

Oldschool Communist revolutionaries, to be exact. Yeah, it's no mystery where Moxie's politics lie given those allusions and the not-a-company company, eat together, do push ups together, open salary policies.

Thank you. Very well stated. Sorry for the "right-on" comment but an upvote to you and the parent post felt insufficient.

I think water + electronics is a well-known bad combination. Apple never claims their products to be submersible, so of course a dip in the pool = death to the device (though I've had a Galaxy S3 survive a dip in the pool -- recovered completely after spending 3 days in a bag of rice). The point here is that an iPhone (or similar) is a device carried along with the person. That implies being stuffed in pockets, being dropped now and then, left in the car from time to time, and being sat on. A consumer device of quality would withstand such stresses. I guess if Apple were to make a car it would be okay if it was 'totaled' after running into a curb? I

Do CR consider this a real defense? They've proven that the iPhone6's physical weaknesses pair it with the lowest end of the spectrum (by a wide margin). It is indeed more scientific than the empirical 'viral' story, but their results do not bode well for Apple.

But it's clear that most of it is due to ego.
