You're the new young email admin. You see this in your logs. You tell your boss. Your boss shrugs and says, "He's the director and I don't feel like getting fired."

I don't know why people think government, be it any agency including intelligence, is run any different than any other political or corporate bureaucracy. Humanity has a natural pecking order cooked into it and it reflects in our organizations. One does not just challenge the big dog without consequences. Hell, staff may not be able to even audit him the same way Congress has made itself immune to the NSA wire-tapping programs.

Maybe it's the big "democracy" label that people apply to it.

Maybe it's the concept of "Rule of Law" that underpins Western Democracy.

If it's possible to be fired for simply applying the statutory regulations to a civil servant then any semblance of either democracy or rule of law has clearly been replaced with other structures.

Presumably the CIA would try to kill you to cover this up, because otherwise the sacking of the infringer should be a normal conclusion?
