I understand it sucks to hear that people are mistreated, but at least you do hear about it.

The government went after the lawyer in a way reminiscent of the guy in the article. Now that we know the Aussie government does this kind of thing, how many other cases are there that we don't know about? US black sites around the world? Everyone knows about Guantánamo, but how many others are there that don't make the news?
