From the article: "The hacker provided Motherboard with a copy of the data on Sunday. The list includes names, email addresses (many of which are non-public) and job descriptions, such as task force deputy director, security specialist, special agent, and many more. The list also includes roughly 1,000 FBI employees in an intelligence analysis role."

Thats the stupidest thing I've ever heard.
a) Intentions aside, FBI/NSA have some of the smartest people working for them. Why exclude them from the private sector?
b) Blacklisting them will ensure that they continue to work for the FBI/NSA or other government agencies, defeating the whole intention of your point
c) None of these people set the policies, or make the laws. Why are you hating on them so much?
