Another important point about LOVEINT in particular is that the known cases were all self-reported. Which speaks to the integrity of those involved compared to hypothetical officers who did the same thing but did not report themselves... but does not speak well of the internal checks in the system, and I have a hard time believing those other officers are entirely hypothetical.


I'm not impressed by the "self-reported" cases.

http://blogs.wsj.com/washwire/2013/08/23/nsa-officers-someti... "Such admissions can arise, for example, when an employee takes a polygraph tests as part of a renewal of a security clearance."

I also want more internal checks than "hoping the bad actors can't fool polygraph examiners".
