subverting bureaucracy through weblogs

McGee’s Musings

How would activities at the [Transportation Security Administration] change if they published a daily weblog with real stories of the best and worst of what they had encountered that day? Not likely to happen, but worth thinking about.

This is painful but valuable read: as we seem to slip closer to a universally paranoid society of informers and snoops, Jim McGee raises the idea that if we could see how trivial and mundane the bulk of the work of these new agencies is, it might put the real risks in perspective.
