    Probably because the US is not the police state many claim it is. Besides, they've done the fine job of finding holes in our intelligence services which allows the US to find and punish those responsible. I imagine it's usually difficult to find out what information 'spies' can access so as to try and fix those security holes.

    To add to the discussion here's a link to The Economist's articles Son of SAM and Don't go back. Both are good reads. Also here's an interview of theirs with Julian Assange

    Four stage strategy from Yes, Minister:
    Stage one we say nothing is going to happen.
    Stage two, we say something may be about to happen, but we should do nothing about it.
    Stage three, we say that maybe we should do something about it, but there's nothing we can do.
    Stage four, we say maybe there was something we could have done, but it's too late now.
