woah, I hadn't even considered that the term has an explicit legal definition. Scary stuff. Protect and serve the people but do it behind closed doors because the people can't handle the truth, right? Problem is the people can't make an informed vote on something they don't know about. The line between democracy and fascism is a fine one and I feel more like our government's mission is creeping in a definite direction every time one of these stories comes to light. I thank the god I don't believe that there are real patriots in this world like Snowden and the EFF who are trying to put the power of the truth in the hands of the people.
My impression was Obama had issued the executive order to make public "controlled unclassified information" so the guys used a euphemism so if taken to court they could they had no undeclared controlled unclassified information. Sensitive information maybe but not controlled.
