I'll be curious to see how this evolves
On one hand, the government obviously can't let it slide without looking weak and it's the Obama administration so you know they're going to go hard after any type of whistleblower. But on the other hand, they certainly won't gain much popularity by doing so, and it's only helping to fuel the notion of a lack of government transparency.

Where there's fuel there's fire. The government isn't transparent. At all. We have laws that We the People are not allowed to know our own interpretation of (as our government sees it). We send NSA letters making private companies and citizens hand over information on others and threaten their freedom (not hollow threats) if they speak about it. We criminalize even whispering of laws we're not allowed to know about. It's fucked up.
