In today's Washington Post...

The release of a huge tranche of U.S. diplomatic cables has laid bare
the primary risk associated with the U.S. government's attempt to
encourage better information-sharing: Someone is bound to leak.

The U.S. intelligence community came under heavy criticism after Sept.
11, 2001, for having failed to share data that could have prevented
the attacks that day. In response, officials from across the
government sought to make it easier for various agencies to share
sensitive information - effectively giving more analysts wider access
to government secrets.

But on Sunday, the Web site WikiLeaks, which had previously released
sensitive U.S. documents about the wars in Afghanistan and in Iraq,
once again proved that there's a downside to better
information-sharing.
