01/29/2007: "CSIS says "Too much secrecy is bad""


It's rather refreshing to hear that CSIS (Canada's intelligence agency) has seen the light (or at least a glimmer of it) on the issue of excessive secrecy. A notable quote: "Over-reaction to terrorism, it should be remembered, is a fundamental objective of most terrorists in history. We should not accommodate their goals in this regard."

Exactly!

Update: I emailed this story to Bruce Schneier, and apparently he agrees.
