dc.description.abstract | In recent years, massive leaks of classified
information enabled by the Internet have been at the core of
political andmedia attention. Wikileaks and the Snowden files are
well known examples. Public and political opinions show a
particular black-and-white division. On the one hand there is
alarm about the abuse of powers by intelligence services and on
the other hand about the possible risks to national security. If we
look at the fact finding side of the latter position there appears to
be a vacuum. Opinion and not factual or logical proof is
dominating the debate at this side. The dogmata of secrecy seem to
prohibit such proofs. How can we elevate this debate by obtaining
some facts and dependable conclusions in spite of their formal
secrecy? In this paper we describe some methods available to
perform the research necessary to answer this question and we
will start making an inventory of press, political and scientific
sources about the Snowden files to be able to estimate the actual
as opposed to the alleged security impact of this case of massive
leaking of classified information | |
