Panama Papers

It's absurd because this is exactly how the snowden leak was handled (I don't know that they ever released all of it, Greenwald and team vetted it first), but more, there is perfectly good reasons for Suddeutsche Zeitung and the rest not to completely leak it, as the Snowden leak was regarding a government, whereas these are involving private citizens, some of whom could be engaged in something completely innocent.

 

More than innocent, some of the people may be doing this to protect themselves from an adversarial gov't. It shouldn't be dumped.

The group that gave us the Panama papers has another trove of information out, this time it's being called the Paradise Papers.

It's always the most philanthropic celebrities that are also shady on the side. Bono wants everyone in the world to give more, but not a chance he pays his fair share of taxes

It is probably irrational, but it always bothers me more when a dude like Bono gets busted for this as opposed to someone like Trump. We all know Trump is a greedy dbag. Heck he has spent decades telling us exactly that. But we get the pretentious guilt trips from Bono only to find out he is as much of a greedy bastard as anyone else, but a hypocrite on top of it.
