It's interesting to see the USG pointing fingers at contractors and contractor access to classified information, but it has made little if any mention in public about dealing with the gross decades-old issue of overclassification of information....which was made abundantly clear to the public during the Wikileaks/Manning event in 2010.

Reforming the scope, nature, and use of classification policies/needs would reduce the number of "contractors" (and gov folks!)  that have access to classified information in the first place and be a better remedy to the current situation.

But that would admit a problem exists, and addicts [to the cult of secrecy] rarely can do that on their own.   ;(
