look at the comments. it seems that the article has somehow implied to the readers that the officials were also committing a crime... i wonder how many of these government officials have a facebook account where they upload files there too? there isn't substantial information to even argue at this point.
secondly, how does he know they were government officials? did he violate their privacy by associating the account to an ip address? or was he just assuming that because of the username, email account, etc, that could easily be hacked to make it look like an official?
too many questions and absolutely no information. bad article.
